Quick answer
The Lipoprotein Analysis (NMR) Test uses nuclear magnetic resonance to measure the number and size of lipoprotein particles in the blood. Unlike a standard lipid panel, which reports cholesterol carried in LDL and HDL, this test counts the particles themselves. Particle number can add information about cardiovascular risk, particularly when standard values look acceptable but other risk factors are present. The test may be ordered by a clinician who wants a more detailed picture.
About this test in Cherry Creek
Lipoproteins are particles that carry cholesterol and triglycerides through the bloodstream. Standard tests measure the cholesterol inside certain particle types. NMR analysis measures the concentration and size of particles directly, including LDL and HDL subclasses and their average size, which can vary between people.
The test requires a blood sample and is often performed without fasting, though instructions vary by laboratory. Results include particle numbers and may include subclass patterns. They are interpreted with standard lipids and the person's overall risk profile and clinical history.
Testing may be considered when a clinician wants more detail than a standard lipid panel provides, such as when risk remains unclear or when family history raises concern. A qualified healthcare provider should interpret the findings and discuss how they affect prevention.
