Liver Health Check

The Liver Function Blood Test is a comprehensive analysis designed to evaluate the health and functioning of the liver.  This comprehensive panel offers valuable information to healthcare professionals for diagnosing liver conditions, monitoring ongoing treatments, and ensuring overall liver health. It includes measurements of various liver enzymes and proteins:

Total Bilirubin: Assessing the levels of bilirubin, a product of red blood cell breakdown, helps in identifying liver function and potential issues.
Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) and Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST): These enzymes are indicators of liver cell damage. Elevated levels may suggest liver inflammation or injury.
Alkaline Phosphatase: Evaluating alkaline phosphatase levels aids in detecting liver or bone disorders.
Total Protein: This measures the total amount of protein in the blood, reflecting liver’s synthesis capabilities.
Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT): Elevated GGT levels may indicate liver or bile duct issues, providing insight into liver health.
Globulin and Albumin: These proteins contribute to the total protein measurement and help assess liver function, with alterations in their levels indicating potential liver diseases.
