| Blood Panel Abbreviation Question Ellie had a blood panel and one of her numbers is low. The vet said it is fine. The print out that they gave me of her numbers is cut off on the side (meaning you can't really read the first letter of some of the abbreviations). For example, all you can see for ALT is half of an L and then a T. My question is this. The one number that is low looks like maybe MYL but I can't find that abbreviation online. Maybe it is MVL or maybe NYL? Anyone know? The reference range of that one is 500-1500 if that helps.

| Thank you so much. It looks like it is amylase.

| Lab tests ALT is a liver function test & amylase is for pancreatitis. Any of these tests that are reported as "low" is as good as you could get. You would be concerned only if it's "high" or above normal range.
