The LipoMap™ test is the most comprehensive lipoprotein particle analysis available for clinical use. It uses advanced nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technology to go beyond basic cholesterol numbers, analyzing the size, number, and density of key lipoprotein particles involved in lipid transport.
Key features:
• Measures LDL, HDL, VLDL, and IDL particle numbers and sizes
• Analyzes free cholesterol and cholesterol esters within particles
• Detects patterns linked to inherited lipid disorders or metabolic risk
Best suited for patients with:
• Persistent cardiovascular risk despite “normal” cholesterol results
• Complex lipid disorders or strong family history of heart disease
• Metabolic syndrome, prediabetes, or insulin resistance
