Diagnostics & Prevention
Advanced Diagnostics & Laboratory
A routine check-up often stops at basic cholesterol and blood sugar. Our advanced diagnostics go further, measuring the markers that give an earlier and clearer picture of cardiovascular, metabolic and hormonal risk.
Panels are chosen by your physician for your history and goals, and every result is explained in plain language — what it means, how it compares with healthy ranges, and what, if anything, to do about it.
What's included
- Comprehensive blood testing
- Cardiovascular markers including ApoB, Lp(a) and hs-CRP
- Metabolic markers including glucose, insulin and HbA1c
- Hormonal profile: testosterone, estrogen, thyroid, cortisol and DHEA
- Vitamin, mineral and nutritional deficiency assessment
- Liver, kidney and general health profiles
Who it's for
- Anyone whose routine results look 'normal' but who wants more detail
- People with a family history of early heart disease
- Anyone tracking the effect of diet, training or treatment over time
Common questions: Advanced Diagnostics & Laboratory
What are ApoB and Lp(a), and why measure them?
ApoB counts the cholesterol-carrying particles that can enter artery walls, and Lp(a) is a largely inherited particle linked to cardiovascular risk. Both add information that a standard cholesterol test does not show.
Do I need to fast before the tests?
Some panels require fasting. We will tell you exactly how to prepare when your tests are booked.
How quickly are results available?
Most results are available within a few days, and your physician reviews them with you.
