Stool test to assess pancreatic exocrine function.

Additional Information

This test measures pancreatic elastase levels, which reflect the activity of key pancreatic enzymes (trypsin, chymotrypsin, amylase, and lipase). Low levels indicate insufficient enzyme production, leading to malabsorption. This is important for diagnosing pancreatic insufficiency, a condition causing digestive problems. It helps determine if you're not absorbing nutrients properly due to pancreatic issues. The test can guide treatment decisions and improve nutrient absorption.
