Digestion Profile at Vijaya Pathlabs Pvt Ltd

Digestion is a complex process where the food you consume is broken down to provide energy for all the processes in your body. Several organs, muscles, and tissues are involved in digestion, and issues with any of these can disrupt the digestive process. One critical organ in digestion is the pancreas, located behind the stomach in the abdomen. When the pancreas encounters issues or malfunctions, it can lead to discomfort and digestive problems. An Amylase Test is a common diagnostic test recommended to assess pancreatic disorders by examining the presence of amylase. Booking a Digestion Profile Amylase Test at Vijaya Pathlabs Pvt Ltd is a straightforward process, allowing you to undergo screening without any hassle. Additionally, a Lipase Test is often recommended to evaluate pancreatic issues. You can schedule a Lipase Test at Vijaya Pathlabs Pvt Ltd along with the Digestion Profile Amylase Test to obtain a clear diagnosis of pancreatic issues. These Digestive System Tests in Vijaya Pathlabs Pvt Ltd play a crucial role in precisely identifying the problems you might be facing so that appropriate treatment can be administered.

Symptoms of Pancreatic Issues:

• Upper abdominal pain

Why Amylase Testing is Important?

The pancreas is a vital organ responsible for two critical functions - secreting fluids to aid in food breakdown in the small intestine and metabolizing proteins and fats. It also produces insulin, facilitating the conversion of sugar in the bloodstream into energy. Thus, the pancreas plays a crucial role in supplying energy for bodily functions. Amylase is an essential enzyme produced in the pancreas and salivary glands. It is responsible for breaking down food and facilitating digestion. An Amylase Test at Vijaya Pathlabs Pvt Ltd assesses amylase levels in the body. When the pancreas is damaged, it may produce either excessive or insufficient amylase. An Amylase Test helps determine the normal functioning of your pancreas.

Lipase is another enzyme produced by the pancreas. It is released when you consume food and aids in breaking down dietary fats in your intestines. Lipase is vital for maintaining your body's energy levels and overall function. A Lipase Test at Vijaya Pathlabs Pvt Ltd assesses Lipase levels, providing insights into pancreatic function, similar to a Serum Amylase Test.

How Amylase Blood Test is Performed at Vijaya Pathlabs Pvt Ltd?

Amylase levels may become imbalanced when the pancreas is damaged or inflamed. Typically, a Serum Amylase Test is conducted to check for pancreatitis. However, elevated levels can also indicate other conditions like pancreatic cysts or cancer. Your doctor may recommend a Lipase Test in conjunction with an Amylase Test at Vijaya Pathlabs Pvt Ltd to ensure an accurate diagnosis. During an Amylase Test, a small blood sample is collected and analyzed to measure amylase levels.
