# RheumAssure®

> This test measures specific antibodies and markers of inflammation in the blood that are often found when the immune system attacks the joints. It helps show whether joint pain, stiffness, and swelling are likely caused by rheumatoid arthritis rather than general wear and tear. Doctors use these results to help distinguish between different types of joint conditions. However, this test cannot diagnose arthritis by itself, as a physical examination of the joints is necessary to confirm the condition.
