High-sensitivity CRP measures very low levels of inflammation that standard CRP can't. Because chronic low-grade inflammation contributes to heart disease, hs-CRP adds a valuable layer to cardiovascular risk assessment beyond cholesterol alone.

What This Panel Measures

🔥
Cardiovascular inflammation. hs-CRP detects the low-grade inflammation associated with heart-disease risk, refining what cholesterol alone can tell you.

Who Should Get This Panel

  • You want a fuller cardiovascular risk picture beyond cholesterol
  • You have a family history of heart disease
  • You have metabolic risk factors like high blood pressure or blood sugar
  • You're tracking how lifestyle changes affect inflammation

When to Get Tested

Test when assessing heart-disease risk, ideally when you're free of acute illness or injury, since any infection can temporarily raise the result. Avoid testing during an active cold or flare.

Understanding Your Results

Results post to your secure online account usually in 1–2 business days and are grouped into cardiovascular risk categories. A recent infection or injury can raise hs-CRP temporarily, so a high result during illness may warrant a recheck once you've recovered.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is hs-CRP different from regular CRP?
Standard CRP measures higher inflammation from infection or injury. hs-CRP measures much lower levels and is used specifically to assess cardiovascular risk.
Do I need to fast?
No fasting is required. Try to test when you're well, since a cold, infection or injury can temporarily raise the result.
Is this billed to insurance?
No — you pay directly here, nothing is billed to insurance, and results go only to your secure account. It stays 100% confidential.
