Is the CRP test useful in diagnosing specific diseases?

While the CRP test is a valuable indicator of inflammation and can suggest the presence of an inflammatory condition, it is not specific to any particular disease. Elevated CRP levels require further investigation with additional tests and clinical evaluations to diagnose specific conditions such as autoimmune diseases, infections, or cardiovascular risk.

Should individuals without symptoms get a CRP test for preventive health?

The high-sensitivity CRP test can be used as part of a preventive health check-up to assess the risk of cardiovascular diseases, especially in individuals with risk factors like hypertension, diabetes, or a family history of heart disease. For general health screening without specific symptoms or risk factors, the necessity of a CRP test would depend on individual health assessments and recommendations by healthcare providers.
