GAMA Gt

Overview:
The GAMA GT test measures the level of gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) in the blood. GGT is an enzyme that plays a key role in the liver's ability to break down and process toxins. Elevated GGT levels are often associated with liver disease, bile duct problems, or alcohol consumption.

What it detects:
This test detects the concentration of GGT in the blood, which helps assess liver function and diagnose liver-related conditions. High levels of GGT may indicate liver damage, alcohol abuse, bile duct obstruction, or the use of certain medications.

Who should get it:
Individuals with symptoms such as abdominal pain, jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), dark urine, or unexplained fatigue may need this test. It is also recommended for people with a history of heavy drinking, liver disease, or those using medications that affect liver enzymes.
