Liver function tests (also known as a liver panel) is a blood test that assesses the liver's production of several proteins, enzymes, and other compounds. These examinations evaluate your liver's general condition. Various compounds are frequently evaluated simultaneously on a single blood sample, and they may include the following:

• Albumin, a protein made in the liver
• Total protein. This examination counts total protein in the blood.
• AST (aspartate aminotransferase), ALP (alkaline phosphatase), ALT (alanine transaminase), and gamma-glutamyl tansferase (GGT). These are different enzymes made by the liver.
• Bilirubin, a waste product made by the liver.
• Lactate dehydrogenase (LD), an enzyme found in most of the body's cells.When a disease or injury cause damage to cells, LD is released into the blood.
• Prothrombin time (PT), a protein involved in blood clotting.

If levels of one or more of these substances are out of the normal range, it may be a sign of liver disease.

A complete blood count (CBC) is a blood test used to assess your general health and find a range of illnesses, such as leukaemia, anaemia, and infections.

A complete blood count test evaluates several elements and characteristics of your blood, such as:

• Red blood cells, which carry oxygen
• White blood cells, which fight infection
• Hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells
• Hematocrit, the proportion of red blood cells to the fluid component, or plasma, in your blood
• Platelets, which help with blood clotting

A complete blood count that reveals abnormal increases or declines in cell counts may point to an underlying medical problem that requires further testing.

With this test, you can find out the amount of uric acid in your blood or urine. Uric acid is a typical waste product that the body produces when purine-related compounds are broken down. Purines are nutrients that are present in various foods as well as in your own cells.

What is it used for?

A uric acid test is most often used to:

Help diagnose gout

• Uric acid test helps to dentify the root cause of frequent kidney stones
• People receiving specific cancer treatments should have their uric acid levels monitored. High quantities of uric acid can enter the blood as a result of chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

Why do I need a uric acid test?

If you experience gout symptoms, a uric acid test may also be recommended.

These include:

• Joint discomfort and/or swelling, particularly in the big toe, ankle, or knee
• Reddish, shiny skin around the joints
• If you feel warm on joints when touched

Thyroid function tests are blood test used to assess how well your thyroid gland is functioning. Tests like the T3, T3RU, T4, and TSH are the common tests used in  thyroid function tests.

An ANA test is a blood test that looks for antinuclear antibodies in your blood.  An ANA test is used to help diagnose autoimmune disorders, such as:

• Rheumatoid arthritis,
• Scleroderma, a rare disease that may affect the skin, blood vessels, and organs.
• Autoimmune hepatitis, which causes swelling in your liver.
• Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), disease that affects many parts of the body, including the joints, skin, heart, lungs, kidneys, blood vessels and brain.

 The kidney Function Test (KFT) also called as renal function test (RFT) includes a group of blood tests to determine how well the kidneys are working. Conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure can affect your kidney function. Early detection & precautions help to keep healthy you

A blood test known as a complete cholesterol test, also known as a lipid panel or lipid profile, can determine your blood's level of triglycerides and cholesterol.

Urine routine microscopy involves examining a urine sample under a microscope to look for blood cells, crystals, germs, parasites, and tumor cells.

SGPT [Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase] is a blood test performed to measure the enzyme created in the liver called Alanine Transaminase (ALT). Check for any liver damage or frequent diseases.

A creatinine test is used to see if your kidneys are working normally. High serum creatinine levels in the blood indicate that the kidneys aren’t functioning properly. 

Fasting isn’t necessary to take a test. You can and should eat and drink the same as you do normally to get an accurate result.

A TSH test [thyroid stimulating hormone] measures the amount of TSH in your blood and can find out how healthy your thyroid working. A high TSH level means you have hypothyroidism. Low TSH levels indicate hyperthyroidism. Get tested if any symptoms appear.
