No CCP tests like SED rate tests are able to indicate inflammation and or infection but further tests are required to make a reasonably reliable diagnosis. There is no definitive test for RA. Even if the diagnosis points at RA there are always other possibility's.
Why won't doctors order the anti-CCP to help diagnose RA since it is more definitive than the RF test?
Possibly because it is hard to change old habits. However neither CCP or RF prove that there is RA and to find inflammation levels esr test are usually done anyway. To diagnose RA requires a raft of different tests along with a progression of x rays.
