The Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) test measures the level of LDH, an enzyme found in various tissues throughout the body, including the lungs, heart, liver, kidneys, muscles, and blood cells. When cells or tissues are damaged, LDH is released into the bloodstream, causing its levels to rise.
The LDH test is commonly used to help detect tissue damage, monitor disease progression, and assess the severity of infections and inflammatory conditions. It can provide valuable information when evaluating lung diseases, respiratory infections, liver disorders, and other health conditions.
