About Lipoprotein (a) (Test)
This Lipoprotein (a) test from Quest Diagnostics measures the concentration of Lp(a) in your blood — a genetically determined lipoprotein particle that circulates independently of LDL cholesterol. It is particularly relevant for individuals with a personal or family history of early cardiovascular events or those seeking a more complete picture of their cardiovascular risk markers.
Why It's Worth Considering: Quest Diagnostics is a widely recognized clinical laboratory network; this test uses standardized immunoassay methodology and returns quantitative Lp(a) values that can be reviewed with a healthcare practitioner.
