ISO 15189Explore the included tests and biomarkers
Select a profile or test to see its included components and a plain-language explanation. Related measurements are grouped together for easier reading.
These specialised markers provide information relevant to cardiovascular risk. Apolipoproteins describe proteins carried on lipoprotein particles; lipoprotein(a), where included, is a distinct inherited risk-related particle. Homocysteine, when listed, is interpreted in its own clinical context. These measurements complement, rather than replace, an overall risk assessment and do not diagnose a heart attack.
CRP is a nonspecific marker of inflammation. An abnormal result does not identify its cause or location.
A complete picture of your health, without a clinic queue
A DHA-licensed phlebotomist collects your sample at home, our ISO 15189-accredited laboratory processes it, and a doctor reviews the results with you over a complimentary consultation — so you finish with a plan, not just a PDF.

How to prepare
Fast for eight to ten hours before the sample; water is fine. Take your usual medication, including any statin, unless your doctor says otherwise. Postpone the test if you are unwell, have had a recent infection, injury or surgery, or are having an arthritis flare — inflammation raises CRP and a raised value taken while unwell tells you nothing useful about your heart.
Who should take this test
For people who want to look past a standard cholesterol panel — particularly with a family history of early heart disease, a borderline lipid result, or a strong result that does not match the risk they feel they carry. Lipoprotein(a) is largely inherited and normally measured once in a lifetime. This is long-horizon risk assessment, not a test for chest pain happening now, which needs urgent in-person care.

A standard cholesterol panel answers how much cholesterol is being carried. This one asks a different question: how many particles are doing the carrying, how much protection sits on the other side of the ledger, whether your arteries are inflamed, and whether you inherited a risk that diet will not touch. Five markers, and each one adds something the basic panel cannot.
Counting particles rather than cargo
Cholesterol does not travel loose in the blood; it is carried inside lipoprotein particles, and it is the particles that lodge in the artery wall. Every one of the particles that can do that carries exactly one apolipoprotein B molecule, so measuring apoB counts them directly.
That distinction matters because particles vary in how much cholesterol each one holds. Two people with the same LDL cholesterol figure can be carrying quite different numbers of particles, and the one with more particles is carrying more risk. Where the two measurements disagree, apoB is generally the more reliable guide.
The other side of the balance
Apolipoprotein A1 is the principal protein of the particles that move cholesterol away from the artery wall rather than into it. On its own it is of moderate interest; set against apoB as a ratio, it expresses the balance between the process that deposits cholesterol and the process that clears it in one figure.
Ratios also tend to be more stable than individual values, which makes this one useful for tracking whether a change in treatment or lifestyle has actually shifted anything.
Lipoprotein(a) is the one you inherit
Your Lp(a) level is largely set by your genes. It is established early, stays broadly stable through adult life, and does not respond meaningfully to diet, exercise or the usual cholesterol medication. For that reason it is normally measured once rather than monitored.
Knowing it changes how everything else is managed. A raised Lp(a) is an independent risk factor that cannot be removed, so the response is to be more determined about the risks that can be — blood pressure, cholesterol, smoking, blood sugar — and to consider whether family members should be checked too.
Inflammation is a separate axis, and timing matters
C-reactive protein measures inflammation, which drives the process by which plaque forms and becomes unstable. It adds information that lipid measurements miss entirely.
It is also completely non-specific. Any infection, injury, recent surgery, flare of arthritis or even a bad cold will raise it, and a value taken while you are unwell says nothing about your cardiovascular risk. Test when you are well and settled, and repeat rather than act on a single raised figure.
What this panel is not for
This is a long-horizon risk assessment. It estimates the probability of trouble over years, and it is read alongside your blood pressure, weight, blood sugar, smoking history and family history rather than on its own.
It is not a test for chest pain happening now. Pain, pressure or tightness in the chest, breathlessness or pain radiating into the arm or jaw needs urgent, in-person assessment with an examination, an ECG and the appropriate emergency blood tests — not a panel with a turnaround measured in days. This one requires an eight to ten hour fast, is collected at your home, hotel or office, returns within forty-eight hours, and is reviewed with a doctor.
