Fasting Required

The Cardiovascular and Metabolic Panel panel is a comprehensive blood test that includes 11 markers used to assess cholesterol balance, inflammation, insulin regulation, and overall heart disease risk. This panel goes beyond a standard lipid panel by incorporating advanced markers associated with cardiovascular health. It is commonly ordered for baseline cardiovascular risk assessment, preventive screening, and ongoing monitoring in individuals with a family history of heart disease, metabolic concerns, or abnormal cholesterol levels. The panel includes 11 tests: Lipid Panel: Total Cholesterol: Measures overall cholesterol levels Triglycerides: Evaluates circulating fats linked to heart disease risk HDL Cholesterol: “Good” cholesterol associated with cardiovascular protection LDL Cholesterol (calculated): “Bad” cholesterol linked to plaque buildup Cholesterol/HDL Ratio: Assesses cholesterol balance Additional Cardiovascular Markers: sdLDL (Small Dense LDL): Identifies more atherogenic LDL particles High-Sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP): Marker of systemic inflammation Homocysteine: Elevated levels may increase cardiovascular risk Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]: A genetically influenced risk factor for heart disease Apolipoprotein A-1 (Apo A-1): Primary protein of HDL cholesterol Apolipoprotein B (Apo B): Reflects total atherogenic particle number Fasting Insulin: Evaluates insulin regulation and metabolic health
