Why it matters

CRP rises quickly with inflammation anywhere in the body and falls as it settles, which makes it a useful way to track whether an inflammatory process is improving. CRP is a canine marker — cats use serum amyloid A instead.

Reference interval —Cornell eClinpath

Reference ranges reflect conventional laboratory intervals. Always interpret against your own lab's printed range and your veterinary surgeon's judgement. A brighter optimal band is shown only where a published guideline defines one, and it is cited.
