Lipid context
The planned range includes standard cholesterol measures, with broader lipid-related markers at higher panel levels. A number outside a reference range does not establish a diagnosis by itself.
Cardiovascular and metabolic context
Planned panels bring together selected cardiovascular- and metabolic-related measurements, interpreted as part of a wider health picture rather than as a stand-alone diagnosis.
Morning fasting samples, three clear panel levels and an optional £99 clinician-led review.
What to expect
The planned range includes standard cholesterol measures, with broader lipid-related markers at higher panel levels. A number outside a reference range does not establish a diagnosis by itself.
Selected glucose and metabolic markers are planned at different levels. Preparation, timing, medicines and clinical history can affect how results are understood.
Kidney-, liver-, thyroid- and inflammation-related results can provide useful context, but no panel rules out cardiovascular or metabolic disease.
Symptoms, risk assessment, treatment and medicine decisions belong with an appropriate healthcare professional. AK-LABS is not an emergency service.
The NHS describes lipid profiles, glucose and renal panels as different tests used for different clinical questions. Final AK-LABS wording and analytes will match the confirmed laboratory method and panel specification.
