NMR LipoProfile

The NMR LipoProfile test is a specialized blood test that uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to analyze lipoprotein particles in the blood. Unlike standard lipid panels that measure total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglycerides, the NMR LipoProfile provides a more detailed breakdown of lipoprotein particle sizes and concentrations. This information can help assess cardiovascular risk more accurately by evaluating the number and size of LDL particles, which is crucial in understanding an individual's risk for heart disease.
