The NMR Lipoprotein Fractionation Test uses nuclear magnetic resonance to measure particle size and concentration of LDL, HDL, and VLDL cholesterol. Unlike a standard lipid panel, it provides detailed information on lipoprotein subfractions linked to cardiovascular risk. Doctors use this test to assess heart disease risk, guide cholesterol management, and monitor therapy effectiveness. It offers deeper insight into lipid metabolism and cardiovascular health.

The Cardio IQ™ Lp-PLA2 PLAC® Test measures lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2, an enzyme linked to vascular inflammation and plaque instability. Elevated levels are associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease and ischemic stroke. Doctors use this blood test to assess cardiovascular risk beyond standard cholesterol testing, helping guide prevention and treatment strategies to reduce risk of heart attack or stroke.

Also Known As: LpPLA2 Test, Ps-PLA2 Activity Test, Lipoprotein-Associated Phospholipase A2 Test

The proBNP N-Terminal test measures levels of B-Type Natriuretic peptide in your blood plasma to detect heart failure.

 The Cardio IQ™ Triglycerides test is a specialized assessment that measures the concentration of triglycerides in the blood. Triglycerides are a type of fat (lipid) found in the blood. The body converts any calories it doesn't use right away into triglycerides, which are stored in fat cells. Later, hormones release triglycerides for energy between meals.

The Cardio IQ Vitamin D test, also known as a 25-hydroxy vitamin D test, measures the levels of total vitamin D in the blood, including both vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). It provides information about an individual's overall vitamin D status.

The Cardiolipin IgA IgG IgM Antibodies test is a valuable tool in diagnosing and assessing various autoimmune and thrombotic disorders that involve the immune system's reaction against cardiolipin, a phospholipid present in cell membranes. This test aids healthcare providers in understanding the risk of clotting disorders and autoimmune conditions.

 The Cardiolipin IgG Antibody test is a blood test specifically designed to detect antibodies against cardiolipin in the IgG form. Cardiolipin is a phospholipid found in the inner mitochondrial membrane of cells. The body can produce antibodies against cardiolipin, and their presence can indicate specific autoimmune conditions.
: Plasma-Unspecified Vial Pour
Add to  
 The Cardiolipin IgM Antibody Test is a blood test that detects the presence of Immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies against cardiolipin. Cardiolipin is a phospholipid present in the inner mitochondrial membrane of cells. When the immune system mistakenly targets cardiolipin, it can produce antibodies against it, leading to potential health issues.

The Cholesterol and Lipids Base Test evaluates key blood fats, including total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, non-HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. It also calculates important ratios to give a clearer picture of heart health, helping identify risks and guide management of cardiovascular disease.

Add to  

The HDL Cholesterol Test measures high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, often called “good” cholesterol, which helps remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream. Higher HDL levels are linked to a lower risk of heart disease, while low levels may increase cardiovascular risk. Doctors use this blood test as part of a lipid panel to assess heart health, evaluate risk factors, and guide lifestyle or treatment strategies for cardiovascular disease prevention.

Also Known As: Good Cholesterol Test
Add to  

The Cholesterol Total Test measures the overall amount of cholesterol in blood, combining LDL and HDL, to evaluate cardiovascular health. High cholesterol is a major risk factor for heart disease, atherosclerosis, and stroke, while low levels may also affect health. Doctors use this test for routine screening, monitoring treatment, and assessing heart risk. Results provide key insight into lipid balance, helping guide lifestyle changes and therapy decisions.

 The Chromogranin A (CgA) test measures the level of chromogranin A in the blood. Chromogranin A is a protein found in neuroendocrine cells, which are distributed throughout the body and play a role in the nervous and endocrine systems. Elevated levels of chromogranin A can indicate the presence of a neuroendocrine tumor.

Add to  
The Complement Component C3c and C4c test is a laboratory procedure used to measure the levels of specific proteins—C3c and C4c—in the blood. These proteins are part of the complement system, a group of proteins that play vital roles in immunity and inflammation. The complement system enhances (or complements) the body's ability to clear pathogens and damaged cells.
Also Known As: C3 and C4 Test, Complement C3 and C4 Test, Complement Test

The Complete Blood Count with Differential and Platelets Test is a comprehensive blood test that checks red blood cells, white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets. The differential analyzes types of white blood cells to detect infections, anemia, clotting abnormalities, immune conditions, and certain cancers. This essential test is often ordered for routine health exams, diagnosis, and monitoring treatment progress.

Discover Heart Problems Early With Heart and Cardiovascular Tests

One person dies every 36 seconds in the United States from cardiovascular disease.

That may seem like a shocking statistic, but what's more surprising is that cardiovascular disease is also the leading cause of death in the US.

Thankfully, by utilizing blood testing for cardiovascular diseases, you can learn your risk factors and make changes in your life to help prevent future heart problems.

So, what is cardiovascular disease, and which heart and cardiovascular tests are used to help diagnose it? Keep reading to learn more about this deadly disease and how to prevent it.

What is Heart and Cardiovascular Disease?

Cardiovascular disease is a type of disease that affects the heart muscle or blood vessels. Heart and Cardiovascular Disease refers to several different conditions, such as heart failure, stroke, heart attack, and more. The most common type of cardiovascular disease in the US is Coronary Artery Disease.
