PROVIDER INITIATED TEST - The Rheumatoid Arthritis Panel is a blood test that evaluates three key autoimmune markers commonly associated with rheumatoid arthritis and related inflammatory joint conditions. This panel helps assess immune system activity when symptoms such as joint pain, stiffness, swelling, or unexplained inflammation are present.
Results from this panel can support diagnosis, help differentiate rheumatoid arthritis from other autoimmune or connective tissue disorders, and guide further evaluation.
The panel includes 3 tests:
Antinuclear Antibodies (ANA): Screens for autoimmune activity that may be present in connective tissue diseases
Rheumatoid Factor (RF): Antibody commonly associated with rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory conditions
Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide (CCP) Antibodies: Highly specific marker for rheumatoid arthritis, often present early in disease
Results are interpreted together with clinical findings and additional laboratory testing to provide a more complete picture of inflammatory arthritis.
