CRP is C-Reactive Protien. There are two routine tests; one for cardiac inflammation and another for muscular. Another test for inflammation is sedimentation rate, but this one is non-specific. All done together, one can get a loose idea if there is an active inflammatory process going on and of what type it might generally be. These are supplemental tests that are done along with other tests that are more specific to what the clinician is looking for.
