I am over 60 years old and having high cholesterol for years. I understand there is a risk of plaque buildup in the blood vessels although I have no symptoms.

Is there a medical check-up for plaque buildup available in the clinics or companies like BP Lab, etc in Penang? What tests should I request and the cost of such a test?

Thanks for the info. What would be the approximate cost?

Don't I need to check for the blood vessels on the head (risk of stroke) in addition to the heart?
