Clinical Overview

Clinical Summary: Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) is an enzyme found mostly in the liver. It is the most sensitive marker for detecting liver damage or inflammation caused by toxins, alcohol, or viruses.

What is the ALT Test?

When liver cells are damaged, they release ALT into the bloodstream. This test measures those levels to identify liver injury even before physical symptoms like jaundice appear.

Why get tested?

  • To screen for liver diseases like Hepatitis or Fatty Liver.
  • To monitor the side effects of medications that may stress the liver.
  • If you have symptoms like abdominal pain, nausea, or dark urine.
