Common Patterns of LFT Abnormalities
Description:
Dive into a comprehensive 27-minute video lecture on the interpretation of Liver Function Tests (LFTs). Explore the normal physiology and etiologies of abnormalities in AST, ALT, alkaline phosphatase, GGT, albumin, INR, and bilirubin. Understand common patterns of LFT derangements suggestive of specific diagnoses, including the comparison of AST to ALT ratios and LFT elevations due to various causes. Learn about the consequences of abnormal LFT results and gain insights into the clinical significance of these important diagnostic tools in assessing liver health and function.
