What is Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT)?
Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase is measured as part of a liver function panel. Your GGT is normal — a reassuring sign for your liver and bile ducts.
What does a high Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase mean?
Your GGT is elevated. GGT rises with alcohol use, fatty liver, bile-duct issues, and some medications. A raised GGT alongside a raised ALP usually points to the bile system.
If markedly elevated: Your GGT is very high, which warrants prompt evaluation of your liver and bile ducts.

A single value rarely tells the full story — Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase is best read alongside the rest of your panel. Paste your values or upload your report and get a plain-English explanation of every marker, with the important results flagged.
