The New Antibodies for Rheumatoid Arthritis

We're going to talk about two newer tests that you might think about ordering for patients with suspected rheumatoid arthritis. The anti-car P antibodies can pick up another maybe 10 or 15% of patients that you might miss with the more traditional testing for RA. These are 14-3-3-8a protein. That's an inflammatory marker of sorts that you can send. And then there's a thing called an anti-SA antibody that's really been around for its old, but it's new.
