The start of a new school year could mean the spread of infectious disease and simplifying the world of molecular testing. This and more coming up next on Path News Network. Hello and welcome to Path News Network Daily Edition, powered by the College of American Pathologists. I'm Nancy Johnson. It's Friday, August 15th. Here are the latest headlines. Pathologists looking to strengthen their skills in molecular genetic pathology can take a new course at the CAP's annual meeting in September. The course, which awards CME credit, offers practical tools for selecting tests, interpreting reports, and understanding how cost and accessibility affect test use across different practice settings. The CAP's Dr. Jadee Neff and Dr. Avani Pendse will lead the session. which is ideal for surgical and cytopathologists. Also at CAP25, pathologists will learn how to use biomarkers in gynecologic cancers. As tumor classification shifts from traditional methods to more precise biomarker-based approaches, pathologists are playing a bigger role in guiding treatment decisions. The session, led by the CAPs Dr. Erna Forgo and Dr. Karuna Garg, will cover how to accurately test, score, and interpret these biomarkers while avoiding common pitfalls that could affect patient care and health care costs. Go to the show notes to register for both scientific courses at CAP25. In a national media briefing Tuesday, CAP pathologists spotlighted the top infectious disease threats facing kids heading back to school. Measles, whooping cough, flu, and COVID-19. With vaccination rates dropping, these preventable diseases are making a comeback. The experts warn that measles in particular is dangerously contagious and can be fatal even years after infection. Vaccinations and hand-washing are the top ways to keep kids healthy, they said. You can watch the full media briefing by following the link in the show notes. And finally, with cancer cases increasing, more labs are ditching analog and going digital to boost speed and accuracy. The digital pathology market is on a fast track, expected to more than double to $2.75 billion by 2030. The rapid growth is due to rising demands for telepathology, AI tools, and digital diagnostics. Hospitals, researchers, and life science companies are all jumping in to stay ahead. Go to the show notes to read more on this Markets and Markets report in Yahoo Finance. That's all for today's edition of Path News Network. Be sure to watch your email inbox for more news like this in our CAP newsletters every Tuesday and Thursday. We're back Monday at 5 a.m. Eastern.
