About the Liver Function Tests (Venous)
The Liver Function Tests (Venous) is a grouped test profile offered at our private clinic in London. A venous blood is collected by a registered nurse during an appointment lasting approximately 20 minutes. Results are typically available within 1 day" and are delivered securely via email.
The liver is the body's largest internal organ, performing over 500 functions including filtering blood, producing bile for digestion, metabolising nutrients, and processing medications. Liver function tests (LFTs) measure the levels of specific enzymes and proteins in the blood that are produced or processed by the liver. Key markers include alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), albumin, and bilirubin. Elevated or reduced levels of these markers can indicate that the liver may not be functioning within the expected range. Liver conditions often develop without noticeable symptoms in their early stages, which is why blood testing can be informative.
