Description
Assess artery health and your risk from hardening or furring of the arteries.
The PLAC test measures the amount of the enzyme Lp-PLA2, which is associated with causing inflammation of coronary artery walls.
Atherosclerosis doesn’t tend to have any symptoms at first, but can lead to to life-threatening problems such as coronary heart disease, angina, heart attacks and strokes as well as other cardiovascular diseases such as peripheral vascular disease and chronic kidney disease.
The good news is that the condition is largely preventable with a healthy lifestyle, and the risk of serious problems can be reduced with treatment.
It’s recommended that you also perform lipid profile (Healthier Heart) tests to get a more complete picture as the different risk factors can all contribute independently.
