Will chest x-ray and ace blood test be able to tell me for sure if i have/don't have sarcoidosis? is there anything else that should be considered?

Few cases of iritis. Had chest and si joint x-rays. All fine. Does this rule out sarcoidosis? Had blood work too. All fine except HS CRP level is 2.6.
