Quick answer

The GGT test measures the level of gamma glutamyl transferase, an enzyme concentrated in the liver and bile ducts. It is often ordered alongside other liver tests to help identify whether the liver or bile ducts are involved in an abnormal result. Because GGT can rise for several reasons, it is interpreted with the full set of liver markers and the clinical picture.

What this test measures

Gamma glutamyl transferase is an enzyme involved in moving molecules across cell membranes, and it is found in the highest amounts in the liver and bile ducts. When those tissues are irritated or damaged, GGT can leak into the bloodstream and raise the measured level. It is one of several enzymes clinicians use to assess liver health.

A common use of GGT is to clarify an elevated alkaline phosphatase, another liver-related enzyme that also comes from bone. Because GGT responds mainly to liver and bile duct changes, a raised alkaline phosphatase paired with a normal GGT can point away from the liver, while both being elevated points toward it.

The test requires a blood sample and is frequently bundled with ALT, AST, bilirubin, and other markers. A high GGT does not identify a specific cause by itself, since alcohol use, medications, and various liver and bile duct conditions can all raise it. Clinicians interpret it alongside the other results.
