Reference ranges vary between laboratories. This is not a quality issue — it is because each lab calibrates its instruments and methods using different populations, reagents, and equipment. A result of 5.5 at one lab may show as slightly different at another. What matters is: (1) always using the same lab for serial monitoring, (2) understanding your trend over time, not just one reading. Gini's ranges are calibrated on our specific instruments and validated monthly against international reference samples. Read the full explanation →
| Result | Range | Clinical Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Normal | Below 30 mg/dL | No added genetic cardiac risk from Lp(a) |
| Borderline | 30–50 mg/dL | Moderately elevated risk |
| High risk | Above 50 mg/dL | Significantly elevated genetic cardiac risk |
You have a genetic predisposition to cardiovascular disease. High Lp(a) is present in 20% of the population and explains many heart attacks in people who "shouldn't" have had one. Management: aggressive LDL reduction, aspirin consideration, and lifestyle. New drugs targeting Lp(a) are in trials.
No added genetic cardiac risk from Lp(a).
Gini's Lp(a) — Lipoprotein (a) costs ₹1200. Budget standalone labs charge less. The difference is not just equipment — it is what happens when your result is abnormal.
At a standalone lab, you get a report. At Gini, if your Lp(a) — Lipoprotein is significantly abnormal, our team flags it to Dr. Anil Bhansali's office. You are not alone with a concerning number.
This is what a hospital lab means vs a standalone diagnostic centre. More on Gini's lab quality →
