Understanding Bilirubin Total in Greater Noida

What is Bilirubin Total in Greater Noida?

A Bilirubin Total test measures the amount of bilirubin (indirect and direct) in your body. This test may be performed if your doctor suspects a liver disorder, like jaundice, gallstones, hepatitis, etc. It is done as part of routine health checkups or a liver function test to monitor your overall liver health.

What does Bilirubin Total measure?

A Bilirubin Total examination quantifies the levels of total bilirubin in the body, encompassing both indirect (unconjugated) and direct (conjugated) bilirubin. Bilirubin, a yellowish waste substance, is primarily generated during the breakdown of aging red blood cells (RBCs) in the body. After their typical lifespan of 120 days, RBCs disintegrate in the liver, leading to the production of a substantial amount of bilirubin. It is crucial for this bilirubin to be eliminated from the body.
