Blood Test Scheduled Before Joining School. What Test Will They Take? Have Fatty Liver
I am supposed to do a blood test for work in a couple of days. It is part of the medical tests for preschool teachers in Beijing. I am wondering what kind of blood test they do. In the past they have tested me and said found that I have fatty liver . I am thinking of going to an international hospital but the information they gave is mostly in chinese and it would help the foreign doctors if i am more specific about what test they did. In this kind of test what do they test for?

Hello,
Since you had fatty liver in the past,you would be required to go for tests which contribute towards fatty liver.
Alcohol,obesity,diabetes,high cholesterol ,high triglycerides and various other reasons can result in development of fatty liver.The most common tests done to diagnose fatty liver are
Liver function tests
Blood sugar fasting and PP
Lipid profile
Ultrasound of abdomen
Thanks
