From NHS England's Specialist Pharmacy Service:

Assessing liver function and interpreting liver blood tests

Published 1 May 2024

Topics: Liver disorders · Training and Development

We explain how to assess liver function including the purpose of liver blood tests, how to interpret them and what to do if they are abnormal.

This article forms part of a series

Assessing liver function and interpreting liver blood tests

Questions to ask when giving medicines advice in liver impairment

Information resources for managing medicines in liver impairment

We see quite a number of questions regarding Liver Function Tests - but whilst many with thyroid disorders see oddities of liver function, interpretation has often not been easy. Whatever else, this is a new publication and should be accepted by UK doctors as a quality source.
