What is an Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) Test?

An Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) Test is a routine blood test that measures the amount of an enzyme called alkaline phosphatase in your blood. This enzyme is found throughout your body, with the highest concentrations in your liver, bile ducts, and bones.

This test helps detect and monitor health risks related to your liver, gallbladder, or bones, making it an important tool for early diagnosis and treatment monitoring. The test uses a blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm.
