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.
Blood tests used to assess the liver are known as liver function tests. However, liver function tests can be normal at many stages of liver disease. Blood tests can also detect if you have low levels of certain substances, such as a protein called serum albumin, which is made by the liver. A low level of serum albumin suggests your liver isn't functioning properly.
