The tests (called a liver panel) measure: 1  your level of liver enzymes (see next section) 2  your level of bilirubin (pronounced billy-roo-bin), which rises when the liver is not working well. 3  a protein called albumin (pronounced al-byoo-min), whose levels go down when the liver is damaged.
Alanine transaminase (ALT) is used by your body to metabolize protein. If the liver is damaged or not functioning properly, ALT is released into the blood. This causes ALT levels to increase. A high result on this test can be a sign of liver damage.
