A set of medical tests designed to assess heart and blood vessel health, monitor heart function, blood lipid levels, and detect potential heart problems early.
The troponin I test measures a cardiac protein in the blood and is used to detect heart muscle injury.
CK-MB test measures a specific enzyme in the blood that indicates heart muscle damage.
LDL (low-density lipoprotein) is the “bad” cholesterol that carries cholesterol from the liver to body tissues. High levels can cause fatty buildup in arteries, increasing heart disease risk.
VLDL (very low-density lipoprotein) is a type of fat made by the liver to carry triglycerides to body tissues. High levels are linked to heart disease risk.
Triglycerides are a type of fat found in the blood that serve as an energy source. High levels are linked to increased risk of heart disease and metabolic disorders.
HDL (high-density lipoprotein) is the "good" cholesterol that carries excess cholesterol from the blood to the liver for removal, protecting the heart and vessels.
Total cholesterol is the overall amount of waxy, fat-like substances in the blood, including both good and bad cholesterol, and is used to evaluate heart and vascular health.
The homocysteine test is a blood test that measures the level of homocysteine in the blood. High levels may indicate an increased risk of cardiovascular disease or deficiencies in vitamins B12, B6, and folic acid.
