The FCP Podcast Liver Function Tests with Dr Sophia Than Episode 1 'Its hard to change life style'
Richard is joined on the podcast by consultant hepatologist Dr Sophia Than. During the episode we introduce liver function tests. We discuss what is included in a liver function test, who needs a liver function test, any guidance for clinicians in interpreting liver function tests and some common reasons for abnormal liver function test. We then discuss a case of a raised alanine transaminase, including history, red flags, further investigations and referral.
As always big thank you to Scott for your support.
