Most Comprehensive

Comprehensive Cardiovascular Profile

The deepest look at heart risk we offer. Goes well past standard cholesterol into Lp(a), ApoB, LDL particle size and subfractions, the markers a normal lipid panel misses.

26 tests included

Cholesterol, HDL + LDL Triglycerides Lipoprotein (a) Apolipoprotein B High Sensitivity CRP Homocysteine Advanced Lipids Apolipoprotein A-1 ApoB / ApoA-1 Ratio LDL/HDL Ratio VLDL LDL Phenotype Pattern Mean Particle Size LDL & IDL Subfractions IDL-1 IDL-2 IDL-3 LDL-1 LDL-2 LDL-3 LDL-4 LDL-5 LDL-6 LDL-7 Metabolic Fibrinogen Fasting Glucose
$369

Apolipoprotein B Test

ApoB counts the particles that actually carry cholesterol into the artery wall, which is why it predicts risk better than LDL alone. Comes with ApoA1 and the ratio.

3 tests included

Apolipoprotein B Apolipoprotein A1 ApoA1/ApoB Ratio
$79 $99

Lipoprotein(a) Blood Test

Lp(a) is set almost entirely by your genes, so most people only ever test it once. The single most useful check if heart disease runs in your family.

1 test included

Lipoprotein(a)
$89

Oxidised LDL Test

Measures the share of your LDL that has been damaged by oxidation. A specialist marker for when standard lipids look fine but risk still seems high.

1 test included

Oxidised LDL (OxLDL)
$170

ApoE Genotype Test

Your ApoE genotype shapes how your body handles fat and cholesterol, and it never changes. A one-off test that informs diet and treatment decisions for life.

1 genetic test

APOE Genotype
$230

HDL Subfraction Test

Total HDL hides a lot. This splits it into large, intermediate and small subfractions so you can see whether your protective cholesterol is actually protective.

10 tests included

HDL Subfraction (Large) HDL Subfraction (Intermediate) HDL Subfraction (Small) Cholesterol LDL + HDL Triglycerides Risk Ratios Cholesterol/HDL Ratio LDL/HDL Ratio Triglyceride/HDL Ratio
$245

LipoScreen LDL Subfractions Test

Maps your LDL into seven subfractions and returns a Pattern A or B result. Shows whether your LDL runs large and buoyant or small and dense, which a standard lipid panel cannot tell you.

21 tests included

LDL Phenotype Pattern (A/B) Mean Particle Size LDL-1 to LDL-7 Subfractions Lipoprotein (a) VLDL + IDL-1, 2, 3 Cholesterol, LDL, HDL + Triglycerides LDL Subfractions LDL-1 LDL-2 LDL-3 LDL-4 LDL-5 LDL-6 LDL-7 Intermediate Density IDL-1 IDL-2 IDL-3 Risk Ratios Cholesterol/HDL Ratio LDL/HDL Ratio Triglyceride/HDL Ratio

$385

LipoScreen LDL Subfractions & Oxidised LDL & HDL Subfractions Test

Not sure which test to choose?

Most people start with the Cardiovascular Risk Test, which covers a full lipid profile plus ApoB, Lp(a) and hs-CRP in one panel. If you just want the basics, the Cholesterol Blood Test is the simplest place to begin. Still unsure? Our team can help you pick the right panel.

Who Is This For

Heart blood tests built for every Australian

Cardiovascular testing is for anyone who wants to understand and stay ahead of their heart health. Here is who benefits most.

Family history of heart disease

Heart disease, high cholesterol or Lp(a) in the family. Understanding your inherited risk early gives you more time to act on it.

High or borderline cholesterol

Told your cholesterol is up, or want more than a basic reading. Advanced markers like ApoB add depth to the standard picture.

On statins or lipid therapy

Monitoring how treatment is tracking without the GP runaround. Keep an eye on your lipids and ApoB on your own schedule.

Metabolic or diabetes risk

Heart and metabolic health are closely linked. Check lipids alongside glucose, HbA1c and insulin in one connected panel.

Athletes and optimisers

Training hard and want to protect your heart for the long run. Advanced lipid subfractions give a detailed baseline to track.

Over 40 wanting a baseline

A proactive cardiovascular check as you move through your 40s and beyond. Know your numbers before there is a reason to worry.

No. MediTests is a private, self-request blood testing service. You can order any of our 200+ blood tests directly online without a GP visit, referral, or consult. You will receive your referral instantly by email and can walk into any of 3,300+ collection centres across Australia to get your sample taken.
The Cardiovascular Risk Test is a 12-marker panel covering a full lipid profile (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, non-HDL, triglycerides and cholesterol ratio) alongside ApoB, ApoA1, Lp(a), hs-CRP, HbA1c and glucose. It is $199, and like all our panels you can order it online without a GP referral and receive your results in 24 to 48 hours.
A standard cholesterol test measures total cholesterol, LDL, HDL and triglycerides. ApoB counts the actual number of cholesterol-carrying particles, which many consider a more informative marker of risk. Lp(a) is a largely genetic marker that a standard panel does not include. Together they give a fuller view of cardiovascular risk.
Lp(a) is largely set by your genes and stays fairly stable through life, so most people only need to measure it once. It is especially worth checking if you have a family history of early heart disease. You can order it on its own with the Lipoprotein(a) Blood Test or as part of the Comprehensive Cardiovascular Profile.
Many modern lipid panels can be taken without fasting, though some people are asked to fast for 8 to 12 hours, particularly when triglycerides or glucose are being measured. If your panel includes metabolic markers, follow any fasting guidance included with your referral for the most consistent results.
Yes. Many customers use MediTests to keep an eye on how their lipids and ApoB are tracking without the GP runaround. The Advanced Heart Health Panel covers the markers most people follow. Always follow your prescriber's advice on your medication and use your results to have an informed conversation with them.
A standard lipid test gives you a single number for LDL and HDL. Subfraction testing breaks these down further, for example identifying whether your LDL is made up of larger buoyant particles or smaller denser ones (Pattern A or B). Our LipoScreen range offers this deeper level of detail for people who want it.
Private cardiovascular tests with MediTests start from $79 for the Apolipoprotein B Test and $69.95 for the Cholesterol Blood Test . The Cardiovascular Risk Test is $199, the Advanced Heart Health Panel is $269 and the Comprehensive Cardiovascular Profile is $369. The price you see includes the referral, testing and results.
For a broad view of your heart health, the Cardiovascular Risk Test is our most popular starting point, covering full lipids plus ApoB, Lp(a) and hs-CRP. For a simple, affordable check of the basics, the Cholesterol Blood Test covers them. For advanced markers, the Advanced Heart Health Panel adds ApoB and inflammation. To connect heart and metabolic health, choose the Heart & Metabolic Health Check . For the deepest lipid detail, explore the LipoScreen subfraction range.
Walk into any of our 3,300+ collection centres across Australia. No appointment needed. Our partner network covers WA, NSW, VIC, QLD, ACT, SA, TAS and NT. Selected tests are also available as home collection kits.
Our AHPRA-registered doctors review every report. If anything stands out, we will let you know and recommend following up with your GP for proper interpretation in the context of your medical history.
