Summary: Assuming a unitarily invariant norm $\|\!|\cdot\|\!|$ is given on a two-sided ideal of bounded linear operators acting on a separable Hilbert space, it induces some unitarily invariant norms $\|\!|\cdot\|\!|$ on matrix algebras $\mathcal{M}_n$ for all finite values of $n$ via $\|\!|A\|\!|=\|\!|A\oplus 0\|\!|$. We show that if $\mathscr{A}$ is a $C^*$-algebra of finite dimension
$k$ and $\Phi: \mathscr{A} \to \mathcal{M}_n$ is a unital completely
positive map, then
\begin{equation*}
\|\!|\Phi(AB)-\Phi(A)\Phi(B)\|\!| \leqslant \frac{1}{4}
\|\!|I_{n}\|\!|\,\|\!|I_{kn}\|\!| d_A d_B
\end{equation*}
for any $A,B \in
\mathscr{A}$, where $d_X$ denotes the diameter of the unitary orbit
$\{UXU^*: U \mbox{ is unitary}\}$ of $X$ and $I_{m}$ stands for the
identity of $\mathcal{M}_{m}$. Further we get an analogous
inequality for certain $n$-positive maps in the setting of full
matrix algebras by using some matrix tricks. We also give a Gr\"uss
operator inequality in the setting of $C^*$-algebras of arbitrary
dimension and apply it to some inequalities involving continuous
fields of operators.
