🔍 Service Overview

This dual-focused diagnostic panel provides a comprehensive evaluation of liver health and cardiac muscle integrity. It’s ideal for individuals with risk factors for liver disease, cardiovascular issues, or symptoms such as chest pain, fatigue, or jaundice. The test can detect early signs of liver dysfunction, cholestasis, or heart muscle damage caused by conditions like myocarditis, heart attacks, or chronic heart strain.

✅ What’s Included?

Liver Function Panel:

ALT (Alanine Aminotransferase) – Indicates liver cell injury

AST (Aspartate Aminotransferase) – Supports detection of both liver and cardiac issues

GGT (Gamma Glutamyl Transferase) – Marker for alcohol-related liver damage

Total Bilirubin – Reflects bile flow and liver detoxification function

Albumin – A key protein reflecting liver synthesis capability

Prothrombin Time (PT) – Assesses blood clotting ability, often impaired in liver disease

Cardiac Muscle Injury Markers:

Myoglobin – Early indicator of muscle injury, including the heart

CK-MB (Creatine Kinase-Muscle/Brain) – Cardiac-specific enzyme that rises with heart damage

Troponin T – Gold-standard marker for identifying acute or recent heart muscle injury, such as myocardial infarction (heart attack)

🧾 Extras Included:

Full clinical interpretation in plain language

Referral guidance to your GP or cardiologist/hepatologist if abnormalities are found

Results available within 24–48 hours via our secure digital platform

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should consider this test?

This test is recommended if you have:

  • Unexplained fatigue, chest discomfort, or jaundice
  • History of alcohol use, liver disease, or viral hepatitis
  • Risk factors for heart disease or past cardiac events
  • Abnormal liver function results requiring deeper investigation
  • Chronic illnesses such as diabetes, high cholesterol, or obesity
What does Troponin T measure?

Troponin T is a protein released into the bloodstream when the heart muscle is damaged. Elevated levels may indicate a heart attack, myocarditis, or other forms of cardiac stress.

Can this test diagnose a heart attack?

While this test includes important cardiac biomarkers, it is designed for screening and assessment. If you are experiencing acute chest pain or emergency symptoms, you must seek urgent medical attention via A&E or 999.

Is this test suitable for long-term monitoring?

Yes. It’s a valuable tool for individuals managing chronic liver or heart conditions, enabling regular assessment of disease progression or treatment effectiveness.

How soon will I get my results?

Results are usually ready within 24–48 hours and will be available via our secure Wellness Portal. We will notify you as soon as they are ready to view.

What happens if my results are abnormal?

You will receive a clinically reviewed report with detailed interpretation and clear referral guidance. If urgent abnormalities are detected, we will contact you immediately and recommend further steps.

Can I combine this with other health checks?

Absolutely. This panel complements our:

  • Cardiovascular risk screening
  • Advanced health MOT packages
  • Diabetes, kidney function, or cholesterol checks

We can tailor a full-body screening based on your health concerns.
