PLAC Test – Greenville,
The PLAC Test, or Lipoprotein-Associated Phospholipase A2, is a medical examination used to measure levels of this specific enzyme in the blood, associated with inflammation in the arteries. Elevated PLAC levels don’t directly cause symptoms but serve as an indicator of potential vascular inflammation. High PLAC levels are linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular events like heart attacks and strokes. Physicians may recommend this test, especially for individuals with known cardiovascular risk factors, to assess their vascular health and determine appropriate preventive measures and treatments.
