Liver Function Tests (LFT)
Your liver processes everything you eat, drink, and absorb. Damage often appears in blood tests before symptoms. Our comprehensive LFT panel checks enzymes and proteins that show how well your liver is working.
Why Test Your Liver Function?
Your liver performs over 500 functions including filtering toxins, producing bile, and metabolising medications. Liver function tests (LFTs) measure enzymes and proteins that indicate how well your liver is working and whether it may be damaged.
What's Included?
- • ALT (Alanine Aminotransferase): Elevated in liver cell damage
- • AST (Aspartate Aminotransferase): Found in liver and muscle
- • ALP (Alkaline Phosphatase): Indicates bile duct issues
- • GGT (Gamma-GT): Sensitive marker for liver disease
- • Bilirubin: Causes jaundice when elevated
- • Albumin: Protein made by the liver

ALT, AST, ALP, GGT, bilirubin, and albumin: the standard markers used to assess liver health and bile flow.
Q.Can I add a standalone GGT test?
Yes. We offer a dedicated Gamma GT blood test, or the full LFT panel above for a complete liver picture.
