This advanced lipid and lipoprotein panel evaluates your potential risk for heart disease using detailed particle analysis and apolipoprotein markers. It goes beyond standard cholesterol tests to assess the size, number, and type of lipoproteins involved in cardiovascular health. Ideal for proactive risk management, metabolic health tracking, or fine-tuning your treatment plan. This panel looks at genetic predisposition markers in addition to just standard lipid evaluations.

This lab is intended to be 8-12 hour calorie-fasted,  but please ensure adequate hydration.

A provider will approve your labs, and your Lab Requisition Form will be emailed to you within 24 business hours. Labcorp will also have this on file. Please bring a valid photo ID to your nearest Labcorp location. Results will be securely emailed as soon as they are available.
