NMR LipoProfile Raises Standard for Lipid Testing
The NMR LipoProfile uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to measure LDL cholesterol. More informational than a typical lipid profile, the NMR test measures the exact size and number of LDL particles. The test takes only one minute and provides details valuable to doctors in formulating a treatment plan for the patient.
By measuring specific lipoproteins, doctors have more specific information. With this knowledge, they can more effectively treat patients according to specific risk for certain types of heart disease.
