Lactic Dehydrogenase (LDH) – Serum

The LDH Serum test measures the concentration of Lactic Dehydrogenase, an enzyme found in various tissues throughout the body, including the heart, liver, kidneys, and muscles. Elevated LDH levels in the blood can indicate tissue damage or disease, such as myocardial infarction, liver disease, muscle injury, or certain cancers. The test is commonly used to monitor the progression of these conditions, assess organ function, and evaluate the extent of tissue damage or injury.
