# NMR LipoProfile® With Lipids and Insulin Resistance Markers (With Graph)

> This test measures the number and size of LDL particles in your blood, along with standard cholesterol levels and markers for insulin resistance. It helps show a more detailed picture of your cardiovascular health, which is useful for understanding risks that standard cholesterol tests might miss. This information helps differentiate between different types of cholesterol issues to guide treatment decisions more precisely. However, this test cannot diagnose heart disease or predict a specific cardiac event on its own.
