What diseases could a 'liver enzyme screen' show?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Liver function tests: LFTs (SGOT, SGPT) will not specifically tell you what is causing the liver dysfunction. Rather they are indicators of abnormal liver function and additional studies including hepatitis panel, liver ultrasound, may be necessary.
