Liver function tests (LFT) alcohol testing conducted to monitor the impact of alcohol on liver health. Alcohol consumption can have detrimental effects on the liver, leading to conditions such as alcoholic hepatitis, alcoholic fatty liver disease, and cirrhosis.
Liver function tests (LFT) are a group of blood tests that evaluate the levels of various enzymes, Gamma GT (GGT), Aspartate Transferase (AST) and Alanine Transferase (ALT), associated with liver normal function.These tests help experts assess liver function and identify potential alcohol-related liver problems. Unlike PETh, LFT alcohol testing is not a direct measure of alcohol consumption but rather evaluates the impact of alcohol on liver health. However, after the chronic consumption of alcohol for a prolonged period, this may lead to liver damage and therefore an elevation in the levels of LFT markers in blood.
