Understanding the GGTP Test
Understanding the GGTP Test
The GGTP test measures the levels of gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGTP) in the blood, an enzyme found in various organs, including the liver, kidney, pancreas, heart, and brain. GGTP plays a crucial role in specific chemical changes within the body, particularly in the liver and bile ducts. Elevated GGTP levels may indicate liver or bile duct disorders, helping healthcare providers differentiate between liver or bile duct disorders and bone disease. Additionally, GGTP testing may be used to screen for or monitor alcohol use, providing valuable insights into overall health and well-being.
