Test Overview:
HbA1c gives a long-term picture of blood sugar control and helps evaluate the effectiveness of diabetes treatment. It is useful for both diabetic and prediabetic individuals.

Test Overview:
GGT is highly sensitive to liver and bile duct disorders. It is commonly used along with ALP, SGOT, and SGPT to provide a clearer picture of liver health.
