Question
A few days ago, I had a 2-year and 4-month-old daughter undergo some tests, and it was found that her alkaline phosphatase levels are slightly elevated. What could be the reason for this?
Answer
Alkaline phosphatase is primarily used for diagnosing liver and bile diseases as well as skeletal diseases. Different diseases can lead to varying degrees of elevation, so it is recommended to conduct further detailed examinations to determine the specific cause.
