As science advances, the amount of data generated to assess cardiovascular risk (CVR) continues to grow, including the composition, size, and number of lipoprotein subclasses. To make this wealth of information useful for rapid clinical decision-making, it is essential to have tools for visualization and interpretative summarization.
The Liposcale Test not only provides advanced molecular profiling through Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), but also synthesizes these complex data into an intuitive graphical tool: the Lipid Silhouette.
The Lipid Silhouette is a graphical model that enables a fast and comprehensive evaluation of a patient’s lipid metabolism, going beyond traditional parameters.
It compares the patient’s individual profile (orange curve) with values from a reference population (black circle), generated from a database of more than 6,000 individuals.

The shape of the orange contour reflects the patient’s metabolic status compared to the general population.
The degree of narrowing is proportional to the magnitude of the alteration.
This contour synthesizes information from 10 variables associated with cardiovascular risk.
Protective factors (inverse risk)
Variables associated with cardiovascular protection:
The Lipid Silhouette integrates into a single image:
This makes it a precision medicine tool, facilitating:
