2071638 9110128 PCTABS00006 A method is disclosed for predicting atherosclerotic risk in a living patient using nuclear magnetic resonance. Specifically, NMR parameters for protons of high density lipoproteins are determined and compared against a corresponding value for healthy patients. Suppression of the water proton signal is employed where necessary to obtain a suitable spectrum for the non-water component protons. Individuals with high atherosclerotic risk are identified based on the mean normalized high density lipoprotein resonance amplitude of a proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of a chosen body fluid, most typically one's whole blood.
