To determine if your liver is functioning properly, a healthcare provider may conduct a physical examination, ask about your medical history and symptoms, and run laboratory tests such as Blood tests to measure levels of liver enzymes and proteins, as well to check for anemia, which can indicate liver disease. In some cases, imaging tests such as an ultrasound, fibroscan, or CT /MRI abdomen scan may also be performed to check for signs of damage or disease. Rarely a liver biopsy will be performed to look for signs of liver disease. It’s important to consult a doctor or healthcare provider to determine which tests are appropriate for you and to interpret the results.
