Test Details
Liver function tests help determine the liver’s ability to carry out its major roles, including detoxification, protein synthesis, fat regulation, and drug metabolism. These tests measure enzymes and substances produced or processed by the liver, and abnormal values may indicate inflammation, cell damage, or problems with bile flow. They are used to monitor chronic liver conditions, detect acute liver injury, evaluate drug effects on the liver, and assess the body’s metabolic and detoxification capacity.
