The liver is a unique organ, without pain receptors, therefore, even if there are serious disorders, we do not feel pain. How do you know if there is a problem? Read on!
Both children and adults need to be tested
The liver is called “the queen of the body” for a reason. Health in general and the quality of life largely depend on her condition. In this case, a person may not even be aware of liver pathology. The fact is that the liver itself does not hurt, it does not have pain receptors. Therefore, it is so important to monitor the condition of this organ and regularly take tests.
INVITRO invites one of the most important organs to be examined. In the period from February 15 to March 15, a campaign is held in medical offices, during which you can find out if everything is in order with the liver for just 300 rubles.
Specialists pay attention to the need for regular examinations and offer medical tests at special prices. The company is trying to draw the attention of Volgograd residents to their own health, because the disease is easier to prevent than to cure. Moreover, this can be done economically by taking part in the action “Check the liver for 300 rubles” * and assessing the state of the organ by the five most important biochemical blood parameters. INVITRO accepts everyone in the medical offices of Volgograd and Volzhsky.
What kind of laboratory tests help a doctor to differentiate various disorders of the liver cells, says Vasily Yurasov, Ph.D., Deputy Director for Medical Affairs of the Independent Laboratory INVITRO.
– The depth of liver damage is assessed based on the results of biochemical blood tests. So, tests for enzymes (ALT, ASAT, LDH) will show if there is cell damage in the liver. Evaluation of lipids will allow you to see if the liver is coping with fat sorting, and the analysis of alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) will tell you about the integrity of the bile-synthesizing and biliary system. The determination of bilirubin in the blood also helps to identify the causes of many liver diseases. The main thing is not to engage in self-diagnosis and self-medication. The results of medical tests should only be evaluated by a physician.
For those who like to eat tightly, the liver should be checked first!
