The Serum Total Cholesterol Test is a blood test used to measure the total amount of cholesterol in the bloodstream. Cholesterol is a type of fat (lipid) that is essential for:

• Cell membrane formation
• Hormone production
• Vitamin D synthesis
• Digestion support

However, high cholesterol levels can increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and atherosclerosis.

This test is a key part of the Lipid Profile and is widely recommended for cardiovascular risk assessment.

At Modern Pathology, we provide accurate cholesterol testing with quick reporting and expert diagnostic support.
