“The Short Presentations in Emerging Concepts: Emerging tests for molecular pathology” is a compilation of nine short PowerPoint presentations with selected speaker notes which focus on selected diseases where molecular tests play a key role in patient management. Pathology SPECs are especially valuable when presenting to Tumor Boards or Grand Rounds; updated periodically with reference articles included, and focused on molecular tests that are actionable to patient care. These presentations are provided by the CAP as an aid to pathologists to facilitate discussion on the topic. The content has been reviewed by experts at the CAP, but does not necessary reflect the official opinion of the College of American Pathologists.  First edition published February 2015.
