Atherosclerosis is the deposition of fats/cholesterol in the blood vessels leading to formation of plaques. This blocks or clogs the blood vessel leading to impaired blood supply to the vital organs of the body. Blood vessels of the heart are most commonly affected leading to coronary artery disorders. Cardiovascular disease is the top cause of death for heart attacks and strokes, in asymptomatic people. Risk factors including age, smoking status, hypertension, diabetes, cholesterol, and HDL cholesterol are used by physicians to identify individuals likely to have an ischemic event & to evaluate cardiovascular risk. The test measures the various parameters that can lead to atherosclerosis or formation of plaques.
