Important indicators for liver and kidney health

Liver damage often occurs without clear symptoms, but can have serious long-term consequences. Our liver function test measures various biomarkers that provide insight into your liver health.

What is tested?

ALAT (Alanine aminotransferase), GGT (Gamma-Glutamyltransferase), and AF (Alkaline Phosphatase).

Why this test?

These biomarkers provide an indication of liver function and potential liver damage. Regular monitoring of your liver values ​​can help detect problems early and take action for your health.

Symptoms that your liver needs to be tested:

Your kidneys are responsible for removing waste products from your blood and regulating the water and salt balance in your body. A decline in kidney function can go unnoticed for a long time and only show symptoms in an advanced stage.
