Cholesterol & Lipid Test with ApoB & Lp(a)Lab Test

Cholesterol & Lipid Test with ApoB & Lp(a)

GetTested’s Cholesterol & Lipid Test with ApoB & Lp(a) goes beyond a standard cholesterol test by combining traditional lipid markers with two important cardiovascular risk markers: ApoB and Lp(a). ApoB provides information about the number of cholesterol-carrying particles that can contribute to plaque buildup, while Lp(a) is a largely inherited risk factor that a standard lipid panel does not measure. The panel also includes total cholesterol, HDL, LDL and triglycerides. A simple finger-prick blood sample is collected at home and analyzed by a CLIA-certified laboratory, with results delivered digitally.
