The C-Reactive Protein (High Sensitivity) test measures the level of C-reactive protein in the blood. This test is used to assess the presence and severity of inflammation in the body.
Elevated levels of C-reactive protein may contribute to the diagnosis of various health conditions, including infections from bacteria or viruses, autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and certain types of cancer. It can also be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for these conditions.
