A focused four-marker lipid screen at VIDIA DIAGNOSTIKA measuring total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL and LDL cholesterol — the core cardiovascular risk quartet. The Lipidový soubor is the standard panel for monitoring cholesterol levels, assessing atherosclerosis risk and tracking the response to dietary changes or lipid-lowering therapy. Priced at 237 Kč (self-payer, incl. VAT), it is one of the most affordable private lipid panels available in Prague, processed in the ČIA-accredited VIDIA central laboratory.
About this treatment
The Lipidový soubor (Lipid Panel) at VIDIA DIAGNOSTIKA provides the four cardinal cardiovascular biomarkers required for a complete lipid risk assessment: total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol and LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol. These four values underpin the major cardiovascular risk calculators used in Czech and European clinical practice, including the SCORE2 algorithm recommended by the European…
Total cholesterol gives an aggregate view of all cholesterol-carrying lipoproteins. HDL cholesterol — often called 'good' cholesterol — reflects the body's reverse cholesterol transport capacity; low HDL is independently associated with increased cardiovascular risk. LDL cholesterol is the primary driver of atherosclerotic plaque formation and is the main target of statin therapy; European guidelines recommend LDL below 2.6 mmol/L for the general…
At VIDIA DIAGNOSTIKA, the Lipidový soubor is processed at the central laboratory in Praha 9 Libeň under ČIA-accredited quality protocols. The panel requires a fasting blood draw — 12 hours without food — because post-prandial triglyceride elevation would distort the LDL calculation (which is derived via the Friedewald equation from cholesterol, HDL and triglyceride measurements). Patients attending any of VIDIA's 30 Prague-area collection sites before…
