[|Human|] I m 52 with elevated liver enzymes of 1300. Doctor did a CT scan with contrat and a sonogram and now wants to do a liver biopsy. What will the biopsy show that the other tests didn t. I have quit drinking and enzyme levels went down but not back to normal.
[|AI|]  Helldiver biopsy is needed in many cases of liver parenchymal disease. Biopsy can only tell exact status of liver tissue, and it is very much helpful in definitive diagnosis. Ultrasound and CT scan can narrow down probable diagnosis, but it is not very helpful in definitive diagnosis. This may be the reason for advise of liver biopsy. You should go for it. It is only a short procedure. It is good that you have quit Chat Doctor. This is very important because liver enzyme levels are high. Get well soon. Take Care
