2. Comprehensive metabolic panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comprehensive_metabolic_panel

   The comprehensive metabolic panel, or chemical screen (CMP; CPT code 80053), is a panel of 14 blood tests that serves as an initial broad medical screening tool. The CMP provides a rough check of kidney function, liver function, diabetic and parathyroid status, and electrolyte and fluid balance, but this type of screening has its limitations.

3. Liver function tests - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver_function_tests

   Liver function tests (LFTs or LFs), also referred to as a hepatic panel or liver panel, are groups of blood tests that provide information about the state of a patient's liver. [1] These tests include prothrombin time (PT/INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), albumin , bilirubin (direct and indirect), and others.

4. Basic metabolic panel - Wikipedia

   A basic metabolic panel (BMP) is a blood test consisting of a set of seven or eight biochemical tests and is one of the most common lab tests ordered by health care providers.

5. Hepatic lipase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatic_lipase

   Hepatic lipase (HL), also called hepatic triglyceride lipase (HTGL) or LIPC (for "lipase, hepatic"), is a form of lipase, catalyzing the hydrolysis of triacylglyceride. Hepatic lipase is coded by chromosome 15 and its gene is also often referred to as HTGL or LIPC . [ 5 ]

6. α-Amylase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Α-Amylase

   The test for amylase is easier to perform than that for lipase, making it the primary test used to detect and monitor pancreatitis. Medical laboratories will usually measure either pancreatic amylase or total amylase. If only pancreatic amylase is measured, an increase will not be noted with mumps or other salivary gland trauma.

7. Acute pancreatitis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_pancreatitis

   If the lipase level is about 2.5 to 3 times that of amylase, it is an indication of pancreatitis due to alcohol. [14] Serum lipase is more sensitive and specific than serum amylase in the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, and is the preferred test in the diagnosis. [15] [16]
