SGOT/AST
The SGOT/AST (Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase/Aspartate Aminotransferase) test measures the level of the AST enzyme in the blood, which is present in various tissues, including the liver, heart, and muscles. This test is essential for assessing liver health and diagnosing liver damage or inflammation, as elevated AST levels can indicate conditions such as hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, or muscle disorders. A blood sample is collected and analyzed in a laboratory to determine AST levels.
Regular monitoring of AST is crucial for diagnosing liver and muscle conditions and evaluating treatment effectiveness, with testing typically recommended annually for individuals with liver conditions or as needed based on symptoms.
