title: Markedly elevated gamma-glutamyltransferase.
abstract: Gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) is a highly sensitive but poorly specific liver enzyme commonly used to detect hepatobiliary disease and possible alcohol abuse. Isolated elevations of this enzyme may be due to biochemical anomalies rather than the presence of pathology.
