Liver Function Test (LFT)

Indication: Assesses liver function, jaundice, or hemolytic anemia. Why it's needed: High total bilirubin suggests liver or bile duct disease or excessive red cell breakdown.

SGPT (Alanine Transaminase)/ALT is a diagnostic test performed to assess specific medical conditions. It provides essential clinical information to aid in diagnosis and treatment decisions. Please consult your doctor for details.

Indication: Major protein in blood, important for fluid balance. Why it's needed: Low in liver disease, malnutrition, or kidney disorders.

Indication: Primary screening for hepatitis B virus (HBV). Why it's needed: Detects current infection and is part of prenatal and blood donor screening.

Indication: Differentiates between liver and bile duct-related jaundice. Why it's needed: Elevated direct bilirubin points toward obstructive or hepatocellular jaundice.

Indication: Evaluates liver function, especially in alcohol use or bile duct disease. Why it's needed: Elevated GGT suggests liver damage or obstruction and is often used alongside ALP.

Indication: Evaluates the body's metabolic response to controlled fasting or calorie restriction. Why it's needed: Assists in diagnosing insulinoma, hypoglycemia disorders, or metabolic abnormalities.

Indication: Enzyme used to diagnose pancreatitis. Why it's needed: Elevated in acute or chronic pancreatic inflammation, also in abdominal pain evaluation.

Indication: Identifies the genotype of hepatitis C virus. Why it's needed: Genotype guides selection and duration of antiviral treatment.
