Amylase Test

An amylase test measures the amount of this digestive enzyme in the blood or urine. It is primarily used to diagnose or monitor pancreatitis and other pancreatic conditions. Elevated levels can suggest acute inflammation of the pancreas, while low levels may indicate chronic damage. Doctors often pair it with a lipase test for more accurate assessment. It's a helpful diagnostic tool when you experience symptoms like severe abdominal pain or vomiting.
