Hey Tig

Liked this link, had lots of easy to understand liver function info.

My favorite page said this ----------

Liver Synthetic Function

(A) Total Protein and Serum Albumin

(B) Total Bilirubin

(C) Prothrombin Time  (PT/INR)

These are true tests of liver function

This may help those interested or having questions regarding the liver function tests. This is a PDF file that does a decent job of explaining the LFT's and the various functions involved. I hope it helps to educate and clear up some of these often confusing test results.
