Common questions

Are ion mobility and NMR panels interchangeable?

These methods use different measurement techniques and can report different metrics and reference ranges. Check which values are included when comparing prices or tracking results over time.

Do large LDL particles make a high particle count harmless?

Particle size alone does not cancel out an elevated particle burden. Discuss LDL cholesterol, non-HDL cholesterol and ApoB with your clinician before ordering specialty fractionation.
