Shop - Bilirubin – Direct

The Direct Bilirubin test measures the level of conjugated bilirubin in the blood, which is the form of bilirubin that has been processed by the liver and is water-soluble. This test is used to assess liver function and diagnose conditions related to bile duct obstruction, liver disease, and hemolytic anemia. Elevated levels of direct bilirubin can indicate issues such as cholestasis or liver dysfunction, as it reflects the liver’s ability to process and excrete bilirubin. The test is typically performed alongside Total Bilirubin and Indirect Bilirubin tests to provide a comprehensive evaluation of bilirubin metabolism. A blood sample is required for this test, and results are interpreted in conjunction with clinical findings to guide diagnosis and management.
