Measure the levels of two pancreatic digestive enzymes - amylase and lipase - in your blood. A well-functioning pancreas is important for a healthy digestive system. The pancreas is an organ that sits behind the stomach and makes digestive enzymes, including amylase and lipase, which help your body process the food you eat. The test measures the amount of these two enzymes in your blood. High levels of these enzymes may indicate acute pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, or a blockage in the pancreas. Low levels can indicate chronic pancreatitis, liver disease, or cystic fibrosis.
