LFT Case Study – Interactive Clinical Interpretation Tool
Author: Claire L. Price
🔗 LFT Case Study
Overview
LFT Case Study is an interactive, browser-based teaching tool that guides users through the interpretation of liver function tests (LFTs) using structured clinical reasoning.
Learners work through step-by-step questions involving: - Liver enzyme patterns (e.g., ALT, AST, ALP) - Bilirubin and albumin levels - Possible causes based on lab results and symptoms
This tool supports understanding of how LFTs relate to different types of liver pathology, including hepatocellular injury, cholestasis, and synthetic dysfunction.
Educational Objectives
- Improve recognition of common LFT patterns
- Distinguish between hepatocellular and cholestatic liver injury
- Reinforce stepwise clinical reasoning
- Apply learning to simulated case interpretation
Features
- Case-based learning with structured multiple-choice steps
- Immediate feedback at each decision point
- Final summary of your clinical interpretation
- No installation needed – runs entirely in the browser
- Suitable for:
- Medical and biomedical students
- Healthcare professionals in training
- Teaching and outreach sessions
How to Use
- Open
index.htmlin any modern web browser. - Read the clinical case and available lab results.
- Answer each step in the interpretation flow.
- Receive feedback and final diagnostic summary.

abstract: >
The LFT Case Study is a browser-based educational tool that supports learners in interpreting liver
function test (LFT) results through a guided clinical reasoning pathway. It presents realistic cases and
structured decision-making tasks to help users identify patterns of liver dysfunction, including hepatocellular
injury and cholestasis. Designed for use in medical and biomedical education, this tool enhances diagnostic skills
and supports active learning. For educational use only.
