A liver panel usually refers to several lab tests performed as a group. Depending on the physician or the laboratory, a liver panel usually includes tests for AST, ALT, bilirubin, and alkaline phosphatase.
1 Liver function panel: A liver function panel checks how well the liver is working and consists of many different blood tests. 2  ALT (Alanine Aminotransferase): An elevated ALT helps identify liver disease or damage from any number of causes, including hepatitis. High levels often mean bile flow out of the liver is blocked. 2  Bilirubin: High bilirubin levels suggest a problem with the liver. 3  Albumin: As part of total protein levels, albumin helps determine how well the liver is working. 4  Ammonia: Ammonia levels in the blood rise when the liver is not functioning properly.
