NMR LIPOPROTEIN TEST

by iamdumb, Oct 24, 2008 10:05AM
I see that some online labs are offering a new cardiovascular disease test called NMR Lipoprotein  test. I know my primary care physician does not currently perform this test (at least last time I had a checkup he didn't) and I was wondering what the professional consensus  is about this test.

Is it proven? Is it theoretical? Is it debatable? Is it hooey?  

Thanks for any responses.

Well, I guess it was either a dumb question or no one really knew enough about the test to post an opinion. I guess I will have to remember to ask my doctor next time I see him.
