Arthritis Panel Basic
The Basic Arthritis Panel is a group of blood tests designed to help diagnose and monitor different types of arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. These tests evaluate inflammation levels, autoimmune activity, and other markers that indicate joint damage or immune system involvement. Early detection through this panel allows doctors to tailor treatment plans effectively and prevent further joint deterioration.
Common tests included in the Basic Arthritis Panel are the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP), both of which measure inflammation in the body. Additionally, tests like Rheumatoid Factor (RF) and Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide (Anti-CCP) antibodies help identify autoimmune arthritis, particularly rheumatoid arthritis. These markers are crucial for differentiating arthritis types and guiding appropriate therapy.
