Cardiac risk builds quietly before it speaks.
Heart & Circulation
High cholesterol, rising blood pressure, or a family history that makes you want to know where you actually stand.
A basic lipid panel does not tell the whole story. Particle count and inflammation give a sharper picture of risk.
Who should check heart health earlier
Start with the self check- Age forty and over with one or more risk factors
- Family history of heart attack before fifty-five
- High cholesterol, high blood pressure or diabetes
- Current or former smokers
- Waist over 90 cm for men, or 80 cm for women
Heart Risk Factor Check
This check counts risk factors rather than symptoms. Tick what is true of you. If you have never had something checked, that is an answer in itself.
Which of these apply to you?
Select all that apply.
Is any of this happening to you now?
Tick only what is happening. These are not counted in the score.
How long have you noticed this?
When would you like to start?
The doctor should see this sooner
What you ticked is best looked at earlier than a routine appointment. Send it to us so the doctor can see it first.
If it is happening right now and getting worse, go to the nearest emergency department.
This check is not a diagnosis. A doctor interprets it after consultation and testing.
Why a normal LDL does not mean low risk
The LDL on your lab report counts the cholesterol inside LDL particles rather than the particles themselves. So two people with identical LDL can carry very different particle counts. The one carrying more small dense particles faces higher risk, because every particle is another chance to enter the artery wall. ApoB counts those particles directly. Lp(a), meanwhile, is genetic and worth measuring once in a lifetime, since knowing it changes how hard we push everything else.
What we measure for heart health
We start with an advanced lipid panel covering ApoB, Lp(a) and the omega-3 index. Then we add a metabolic assessment, because insulin resistance changes LDL particle size. If you want a blood flow check without radiation, MCG cardiac screening takes under ten minutes and needs no treadmill. The Bahasa Melayu pathway covers the same detail.
Not every test here is ordered for everyone. The consultation decides which ones are relevant.
Two cheap measurements that matter most
Take your blood pressure properly, after sitting quietly for five minutes, and repeat it twice. That single habit carries as much information as many blood tests. Waist circumference, meanwhile, flags visceral fat, which links straight to metabolic risk. Both cost nothing, and you can track them at home.

Frequently Asked
At what age should heart screening start?
Forty and over if risk factors are present, or earlier with a family history of early heart disease.
What is the difference between ApoB and LDL?
LDL measures cholesterol inside particles. ApoB counts the particles, which is a more consistent risk marker.
Does MCG screening use radiation?
No radiation, no contrast agent, and no treadmill test.
