Apolipoprotein A-1 (Apo-A)
$102.00The Apolipoprotein A-1 (Apo-A) test is a blood test that measures the level of apolipoprotein A-1 in the blood. Apolipoprotein A-1 is a protein that is a component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), also known as “good cholesterol.”
Apolipoprotein B (Apo-B)
$102.00The Apolipoprotein B (Apo-B) test is a blood test that measures the level of apolipoprotein B in the blood. Apolipoprotein B is a protein that is a component of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), also known as “bad cholesterol.”
Apolipoprotein Evaluation (Apo-A-1, Apo-B, Lpa)
$270.00The Apolipoprotein Evaluation test is a blood test that measures the levels of three different apolipoproteins: apolipoprotein A-1 (Apo-A-1), apolipoprotein B (Apo-B), and lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)).
BNP
$102.00A BNP (B-type natriuretic peptide) test is a blood test that measures the levels of BNP in the blood.
C-Reactive Protein, High Sensitivity (CRP, HS)
$51.00The benefits of getting a high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP, HS) test include: Screening for inflammation, Assessing cardiovascular disease risk, Monitoring disease activity, Evaluating infections, & Monitoring surgical recovery
C-Reactive Protein, Inflammation (CRP)
$27.00The benefits of getting a C-reactive protein (CRP) test to evaluate inflammation include: Identifying inflammation, Monitoring disease activity, Predicting cardiovascular risk, Assessing the risk of infection, & Monitoring recovery from surgery or trauma.
Cholesterol, Total
$6.00Overall, a chloride test is a simple and relatively inexpensive test that can provide valuable information about electrolyte imbalances, kidney function, and acid-base balance in the body.
Creatinine Kinase (CK), Total
$27.00The creatine kinase (CK) total test measures the levels of an enzyme called creatine kinase in the blood. CK is found in various tissues in the body, including skeletal muscle, heart muscle, and brain tissue. The test is used to assess muscle damage and can be helpful in diagnosing and monitoring conditions that cause muscle injury, such as heart attacks, muscular dystrophy, and rhabdomyolysis (a breakdown of muscle tissue). Some potential benefits of getting a CK total test include:
HDL Cholesterol
$20.40HDL cholesterol test can help assess your risk of developing cardiovascular disease, manage your cholesterol levels, monitor treatment, and identify other health conditions that may be associated with low HDL cholesterol levels. If you are concerned about your cholesterol levels or have a family history of heart disease, talk to your healthcare provider about getting an HDL cholesterol test.
Homocysteine
$46.14Homocysteine is an amino acid that is produced by the body as a byproduct of protein metabolism. Elevated levels of homocysteine in the blood have been linked to an increased risk of certain health conditions.
LDL Cholesterol, measured
$15.00The test for LDL cholesterol measures the level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in your blood. LDL cholesterol is often referred to as “bad” cholesterol because it can contribute to the buildup of plaque in your arteries, which can increase your risk of heart disease and stroke.
Lipid Panel
$8.25A lipid panel can provide important information about your cardiovascular health and guide appropriate treatment to reduce your risk of heart attacks and strokes. If you have concerns about your cholesterol levels or cardiovascular health, it’s important to talk to your healthcare provider to determine if a lipid panel is appropriate for you.
Lipoprotein(a)
$66.00The test for lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] measures the level of Lp(a) in your blood. Lp(a) is a type of lipoprotein that is similar to LDL cholesterol and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Omega-3 and -6 Fatty Acids
$282.00Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are types of polyunsaturated fats that are essential for maintaining overall health.
Small Density LDL (sdLDL)
$102.00Small Density LDL (sdLDL) is a type of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol that is smaller in size and denser than other types of LDL cholesterol. Research suggests that sdLDL is more dangerous than larger LDL particles because they can penetrate the arterial wall more easily, leading to a higher risk of cardiovascular disease.
Uric Acid, Serum Test
$9.00Getting tested for uric acid, serum can be important for several reasons:
To diagnose gout: High levels of uric acid in the blood can cause crystals to form in the joints, leading to a painful condition known as gout. A uric acid, serum test can help diagnose gout.
To monitor kidney function: Uric acid is a waste product that is normally excreted in urine. However, if the kidneys are not functioning properly, uric acid can build up in the blood. A uric acid, serum test can help monitor kidney function.
