Frequently Asked Questions
Why is CRP central to an inflammation panel?
CRP is widely measured, rises across many inflammatory states, and is available in large population datasets. It is often the anchor marker for broad inflammation screening.
Why is more than one inflammation marker useful?
Different inflammatory markers reflect different biologic pathways and time scales. A broader panel can help separate transient inflammation from chronic low-grade inflammatory burden.
