A liver function test is a blood test that measures the levels of certain substances in the blood to assess how well the liver is functioning. These tests can help to detect early signs of liver damage or dysfunction. Some common liver function tests include the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) test, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) test, and bilirubin test. These tests may be ordered as part of a routine physical exam or to monitor liver function in people with certain medical conditions.
