040 - C-Reactive Protein, High Sensitivity (hs-CRP) Test
$90.00
CRP, HS
The hs-CRP test measures very low levels of C-reactive protein in the blood using a high-sensitivity method. This allows detection of subtle, chronic inflammation that may not be identified by standard CRP testing.
This test is commonly used to assess cardiovascular risk, as low-grade inflammation is associated with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. hs-CRP is often ordered alongside lipid testing and other cardiovascular markers to provide a more complete heart health assessment. It is not intended to evaluate acute infections or inflammatory conditions.
