Lipase Test in Noida

What is a Lipase test?

Lipase is an enzyme that is produced by the pancreas that helps the body digest fats. Elevated levels of Lipase in the blood can be a sign that the pancreas is enlarged and inflamed, a condition called pancreatitis. Lipase values may also be increased due to other issues in the pancreas, the use of certain medications, or the health conditions such as kidney disease, cancer, and problems with the gallbladder or oesophagus.

When is the Lipase test recommended?

It is recommended in:

• The diagnosis of acute as well as chronic pancreatitis.

• Determining a blockage in the pancreatic duct.

• To monitor the treatment and effectiveness of pancreatitis.

• To help in the diagnosis of other conditions like kidney diseases, gallbladder inflammation, etc.

What does it measure?

The Lipase test is to measure:

• A Lipase test analyses the levels of Lipase, an enzyme that helps in the digestion of dietary fats (lipids), in your blood.

• Lipase is an enzyme primarily secreted by the pancreas. Hence, it is normal to have a small amount of Lipase in the blood. But, a high value of Lipase can mean to have pancreatitis, an inflammation of the pancreas, and kidney disease.
