What is Serum Lipase (Lipase)?
Serum Lipase is measured as part of a other tests panel. Your lipase is normal, which is reassuring for the pancreas.
What does a high Serum Lipase mean?
Your lipase is elevated. Lipase is more specific to the pancreas than amylase, and a high level can indicate pancreatitis.
If markedly elevated: Your lipase is very high — this strongly suggests acute pancreatitis and needs prompt medical attention.
