Fatty liver disease affects about one in three US adults and is usually silent — the first clue is often a mildly raised ALT on a routine panel. Evaluating it well means looking at the liver and at what is driving the fat: this panel combines the seven-marker liver function panel (ALT, AST, ALP, bilirubin, albumin, total protein) with GGT (the enzyme most sensitive to alcohol and bile-duct stress), a lipid panel and hemoglobin A1c for the metabolic syndrome that causes most fatty liver, ferritin (often elevated in fatty liver and a screen for iron overload, which damages the liver on its own) and a CBC for the platelet count. With AST, ALT, platelets and your age, you can calculate the FIB-4 score that clinicians use to decide whether a liver stiffness scan or a hepatology referral is needed. It is the right panel if you have been told you have fatty liver on an ultrasound, have an unexplained ALT elevation, carry weight around the middle, have type 2 diabetes or prediabetes, or drink regularly. Fast 9–12 hours for the lipid and glucose-related values.
Liver health testing identifies liver inflammation, fatty liver disease, hepatitis, and medication-related liver damage — often before any symptoms appear.
Adults with risk factors for fatty liver (overweight, metabolic syndrome, diabetes), regular alcohol users, people on long-term medications, and anyone with elevated liver enzymes on prior bloodwork.

Alcohol and smoking and nicotine can change a Fatty Liver Panel result without anything being wrong. Alcohol can raise Triglycerides and GGT and 2 more markers on this test — no alcohol for 24–72 hours before a lipid panel. Smoking and nicotine can raise RBC, WBC and LDL Cholesterol and can lower HDL Cholesterol — tell the clinician; a high hematocrit in a smoker is usually smoking, not polycythemia. Each is explained on our physician-reviewed "Before your test" pages; when one applies, remove it and retest.
