Liver Function Test (LFT) in Gurgaon - Price & Details

A liver function test (LFT) is a blood test that measures parameters related to your liver function. Common signs such as unexplained fatigue, loss of appetite, abdominal pain, or abdominal swelling are often ignored or mistaken for other conditions. Liver function tests help monitor these symptoms, detect liver disease early, and assess ongoing treatment response. The test is performed using a single blood sample that can be collected at any time during the day.

The following groups are at high risk of liver disorders and should consider getting LFTs done:

• Long-term medication use: People taking medicines that may stress the liver, such as painkillers, antibiotics, antidepressants, or statins.
• Lifestyle habits: Individuals who consume alcohol regularly.
• Chronic conditions: Those managing diabetes, high blood pressure, or obesity.
• Family history: Anyone with a family history of liver disease or hepatitis.
• People with known liver disease: LFTs may be used to monitor liver function and response to treatment over time.

If you experience any of the following symptoms that might be suggestive of a liver disorder, your doctor may order an LFT:

• Persistent fatigue or unexplained weakness.
• Yellowish discolouration of the eyes or skin.
• Swelling in the legs, ankles, or abdomen.
• Dark-coloured urine.
• Pale stools.
• Loss of appetite.
• Persistent itchy skin.
• Abdominal pain in the upper right region.

The frequency of liver function tests varies depending on age, health condition, and risk status. Check the table below to learn more:

The liver function test does not diagnose a condition on its own, but helps assess the risk of the following conditions and reach a diagnosis along with clinical correlation:

• Fatty liver disease: Detects the build-up of excess fat, which is increasingly common due to modern sedentary lifestyles.
• Hepatitis: Identifies inflammation caused by viral infections or immune system issues.
• Cirrhosis: Shows early signs of permanent scarring that can hinder liver performance.
• Biliary obstruction: Highlights potential blockages in the bile ducts, often caused by gallstones.

Before the test

• Fasting is usually not required for LFT alone.
• Avoid alcohol 24 hours before the test.

• Always consult your healthcare provider for any special instructions to follow before the test.

• A blood sample is collected by inserting a needle into the vein.
• A bandage is applied to the site after the needle is withdrawn.

After the test
