Testing for anti‑neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (P‑ANCA and/or C‑ANCA) is clinically useful in establishing the diagnosis of suspected vascular diseases (for example, crescentic glomerulonephritis, microscopic polyarteritis, and Churg‑Strauss syndrome), inflammatory bowel diseases (such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, autoimmune hepatitis), and other autoimmune conditions ([jdos.nicholsinstitute.com](https://jdos.nicholsinstitute.com/dos/BBWMC/test/457255?utm_source=openai)).
