CELL MARQUE AND MHT ***Present a Fall Lunch n' Learn*** Basic IHC and Troubleshooting Workshop designed to improve basic IHC knowledge and uncover what goes on "behind the scenes" inside your IHC automated platform. It will touch on different types of detection, explaining the advantages and disadvantages of each along with how to determine the best one for your assay. Common causes of suboptimal staining and troubleshooting will be discussed. The session will open up to participants' troubleshooting questions for group discussion. (3 CEU) Cancer and Antibody Challenge Get a glimpse at how IHC comes into play for a patient. This workshop will be a fun, interactive look at how IHC are used by pathologists. Discussion will be geared for an audience with a basic to intermediate level of IHC understanding. Types of cancers and statistics will be discussed along with frequently used panels and their interpretation. We will touch briefly on some of the more advanced algorithms as well. We will present real life scenarios accompanied with various clues and staining results, and allow the audience to use their newly acquired knowledge of panel usage to decide what markers might be helpful. At the conclusion of this talk, the audience will have seen for themselves how important IHC can be, and also how panels can be a great tool to assist pathologists with finding an accurate diagnosis.
