Comprehensive lipid panel measuring cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL, LDL, cholesterol/HDL ratio, non-HDL cholesterol, and lipoprotein(a) to assess cardiovascular risk.

Additional Information

This panel provides a detailed analysis of various lipid components in your blood, including total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) (calculated), cholesterol/HDL ratio (calculated), non-HDL cholesterol (calculated), and lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]. Lp(a) is a genetic marker linked to cardiovascular disease risk. Understanding these levels helps you and your healthcare provider assess your risk for heart attack, heart disease, stroke, and other blood vessel diseases, particularly if you have a history of premature ASCVD not explained by major risk factors. The test can inform discussions about preventative measures and treatment options.

Biomarkers Tested (7)

Cholesterol (mg/dL)
Cholesterol is a fatty substance necessary for building cells, but high levels can increase the risk of heart disease.
Triglycerides (mg/dL)
Triglycerides are a type of fat found in the blood. High levels can increase the risk of heart disease.
High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) Cholesterol (mg/dL)
"Good" cholesterol; removes excess cholesterol from bloodstream and protects against heart disease.
LDL (mmol/L)
Often called "bad" cholesterol, contributing to atherosclerosis and heart disease.
Cholesterol (mg/dL)
Cholesterol is a fatty substance necessary for building cells, but high levels can increase the risk of heart disease.
Cholesterol (mg/dL)
Cholesterol is a fatty substance necessary for building cells, but high levels can increase the risk of heart disease.
Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] (mg/dL)
Lp(a) is a cholesterol-carrying particle linked to genetic risk for heart disease. High levels increase cardiovascular risk.
