Advanced Lipid Fractionation Analysis

Meaning

Advanced Lipid Fractionation Analysis is a high-resolution diagnostic tool that measures specific subclasses and particle sizes of lipoproteins, moving beyond standard cholesterol panels. This detailed assessment provides a precise evaluation of cardiovascular risk and metabolic health, offering a deeper insight into the physiological dynamics of lipid transport. Understanding these specific fractions is crucial for personalized intervention strategies in hormonal and metabolic care, as endocrine factors significantly influence particle composition. The assay quantifies atherogenic small, dense LDL particles versus larger, less harmful ones.
