The liver is a pretty pathetic organ to look at, but it's amazing when it comes to what it can do and the function. If the enzymes start to go up, there's maybe a suggestion that the liveris inflamed, damaged or annoyed. And people should be aware that these hepatacites, they've got various walls and membranes and sides to them. So just athing it's important just to keep that in mind.
Liver function tests (LFTs) are a group of blood tests that provide information on the function of a person's liver. This episode Dr Matt & Dr Mike explain what each liver function test represents. This includes bilirubin, albumin, AST, ALT, ALP, and GGT.**This episode is not intended to diagnose. It is for education purposes only.
