Liver Function Test FAQs
LFTs are a set of liver protein tests for checking for abnormal liver function. These tests involve albumin levels and total protein levels in the blood. ALP (alkaline phosphatase), ALT (alanine transaminase), AST (aspartate aminotransferase), LDH, and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT).
A liver panel is essential for detecting chronic or acute types of hepatitis. These are also for monitoring therapy of liver diseases to show if treatment is effective, checking cirrhosis, drug toxicity and side effects of certain medicines.
If you are undergoing long-term therapy for chronic disease or acute hepatic infection or have experienced jaundice, nausea and vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, dark-coloured urine, pale stool, or fatigue, then LFTs are important.
