MBI005 - BILIRUBIN, SERUM Detail

Bilirubin, Serum test measures the level of bilirubin pigment in the blood, which is produced during the normal breakdown of red blood cells and processed by the liver. It is an important parameter for assessing liver function and bile metabolism.

This test is commonly recommended to evaluate conditions such as jaundice, liver diseases (hepatitis, cirrhosis), bile duct obstruction, and hemolytic disorders. Elevated bilirubin levels may indicate liver dysfunction, increased red cell destruction, or blockage in bile flow. The test may be reported as total, direct, and indirect bilirubin, and results are interpreted along with other liver function tests and clinical findings for accurate diagnosis.
