Abstract
The field of histocompatibility testing has seen significant changes and advancements in the past quarter of a century. The introduction of polymerase chain reaction amplification into routine human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing has informed us on the magnitude of polymorphism among HLA alleles. Solid phase testing for antibodies has provided unparalleled insight into antibody specificity and the role of antibody mediated rejection in transplant outcomes. Herein, we provide a brief overview of advancements in the field that are currently in progress. We also provide our own personal opinion on what is on the horizon and the direction in which we think the field should progress.
