What is Faecal Elastase Test?

This test detects the presence of elastase in your stool. Elastase is an enzyme produced by specialised tissue in the pancreas, an organ located in the upper abdomen. Elastase aids in the digestion of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. It's an important part of your digestive process.

Why it is used?

If you or your child has symptoms of pancreatic insufficiency, a faecal elastase test may be required. These are some examples:
