The Advanced Lipid Panel (includes Lp(a)) measures various lipids in your blood, including cholesterol and triglycerides, to provide a detailed assessment of your cardiovascular health. This test includes Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], a type of cholesterol linked to an increased risk of heart disease. Understanding your lipid profile is crucial for identifying potential cardiovascular risks and developing a personalized approach to heart health. This panel is especially important for individuals with a family history of heart disease or those seeking to optimize their cardiovascular health.

"The most accurate results of this test are obtained if you fast for 10-12 hours and avoid alcohol the day before the test.

Blood vessel disease is caused by progressive cholesterol-laden plaques building up in the arteries of the body, which leads to segmental blockages.  These blockages most frequently occur in the arteries of the heart, the brain, and the lower extremities. Once present in one part of the body, it is known that other arteries will build up plaque and blockages as well.  

Heart attacks and strokes are the two most common and dangerous problems that can result from these blockages.  Heart attacks occur when there is a build-up of cholesterol and plaque (atherosclerosis) inside the arteries that supply blood to the heart.  Strokes occur when this build-up is inside the arteries that supply blood to the brain." - Dr. Alan Hopkins
