The VAP (Vertical Auto Profile) Blood Test measures cholesterol subclasses that play important roles in the development of heart disease. In addition to measuring your cholesterol, the VAP test measures homocysteine and C-Reactive Protein levels. The VAP Test identifies twice as many people at risk than routine cholesterol tests, including those with inherited risk factors who often develop premature heart disease.
