Advances in detection and application of advanced lipid testing in risk assessment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease / 中华检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Advanced lipid testing is an extension of traditional standard blood lipid testing. These biomarkers have has been widely used in the risk assessment and differential diagnosis of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), especially for people with unclear diagnosis and other metabolic risk factors. However, the differences in the measurement results and traceability issues limit the widespread use of these biomarkers. This article aims to introduce and discuss the current status of clinical application of advanced lipid testing in risk assessment of ASCVD, the progress of detection technology and detection standardization in the field.
