Liver function test
Shows how your liver is working. Often the first sign of fatty liver.
A liver function test (LFT) measures liver enzymes like ALT (SGPT) and AST (SGOT), plus bilirubin and proteins. A raised ALT is often linked to fatty liver, alcohol or some medicines. Your doctor reads it with your other results and may suggest an ultrasound. It costs ₹[price] and is in every Aarogya 360 check-up [confirm].
