The Total, Direct, and Indirect Bilirubin test is a comprehensive blood test used to evaluate bilirubin metabolism in the body.

• Total Bilirubin measures the overall bilirubin level in the blood.
• Direct (Conjugated) Bilirubin reflects bilirubin processed by the liver.
• Indirect (Unconjugated) Bilirubin represents bilirubin before it reaches the liver.

This test helps differentiate the causes of jaundice and liver dysfunction. Elevated indirect bilirubin may indicate hemolysis or impaired liver uptake, while elevated direct bilirubin is often associated with liver disease or bile duct obstruction.

It is commonly used in diagnosing liver disorders, hemolytic anemia, and conditions affecting bile flow.

Test Recommended For

• Individuals with jaundice (yellowing of skin or eyes)
• Patients with suspected liver or bile duct disorders
• People with symptoms like dark urine or pale stools
• Individuals with suspected hemolytic anemia
• Patients advised for liver function evaluation
