Lab studies Normal liver enzymes : – Hemolysis – Inherited disorders of bilirubin metabolism Indirect - Gilbert's and Crigler-Najjar syndrome Direct - Rotor and Dubin-Johnson syndrome ALP, AST/ALT : – Biliary obstruction – Intrahepatic cholestasis – Liver disease – AST/ALT ratio Serum total and indirect bilirubin Alkaline phosphatase Aminotransferases Prothrombin time Albumin
Subsequent Studies Evaluatation another disease; confirm Liver Bx Imaging tests : – Abdominal U/S – Endoscopic U/S – Abdomen CT, MRI – ERCP, PTC Serologic tests - viral hepatitis Antimitochondrial antibodies - primary biliary cirrhosis Antinuclear anti-sm, LKM antibodies - autoimmune hepatitis Serum levels of iron, transferrin, ferritin - hemochromatosis Serum levels of ceruloplasmin - Wilson's disease a-1 antitrypsin activity - a-1 antitrypsin deficiency
