Rheumatoid Factor (RF) Test
Check Your Joint and Immune Health: Rheumatoid Factor (RF) Test
The Rheumatoid Factor (RF) Test is a diagnostic tool designed to detect the presence of rheumatoid factor in your blood. Rheumatoid factor is an antibody that can attack healthy tissues in your body, leading to inflammation, joint pain, and swelling. It is often associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but it can also indicate other autoimmune or inflammatory conditions.
This test provides critical insights into your immune system’s activity, helping to confirm a diagnosis, assess the severity of inflammation, or guide treatment plans for joint and autoimmune conditions.
