Bumping up this excellent Zoe Harcombe summary of her best cholesterol articles.

But....If you or your doctor are STILL worried about your cholesterol level, due to family history, or previous diet, or whatever, why not look directly at the arteries to see if there is plaque there? There is a test available, the Coronary Calcium score, that measures artery stiffness. Apparently the price has come way down and the amount of radiation reduced as more CTscan machines are available at just about every hospital.

Dr Jeffrey Gerber wrote a good article about it:
