Same day and Affordable Oxidized LDL Test, Locations Nationwide

Interested in knowing more about your cholesterol? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Oxidized LDL Test in Schenectady, . This test measures Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) in the blood. Oxidized LDL can cause inflammation in the blood vessels, increase the buildup of plaque in the arteries, and increase the risk or heart disease and events like a heart attack or stroke. LDL is often known as "bad" cholesterol. Higher levels of LDL are associated with the buildup of dangerous plaque in the arteries which can lead to heart disease, heart attack, or stroke. Oxidized LDL is formed when LDL cholesterol interacts with free radicals in the bloodstream. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can be formed by the body's normal metabolic processes or through exposure to carcinogens such as tobacco smoke, radiation, air pollution, ultraviolet light, some types of viruses, or various chemicals such as asbestos or radon. LDL particle size plays a role in oxidation with smaller particles more likely to become oxidized. 

An oxidized LDL test is typically ordered along with or as a follow up to a Lipid Panel Cholesterol Test.
