Does anyone measure AST and/or AST:ALT in "high level alcohol usage"? A
governmental agency is stating that AST and ideally AST:ALT should be
used as "screening tool for high level alcohol usage" (other parameters
mentioned are MCV and GGT). This apparently is at the advice of experts
in the field of alcohol treatment and liver disease.
Sorry! I don't have a definition of "high level alcohol usage".
Presumably, it refers to a conviction of drink and drive.
