The Fecal Elastase Test is a non-invasive stool test used to evaluate the function of the pancreas by measuring the level of elastase, a digestive enzyme produced by the pancreas. This enzyme helps break down proteins during digestion and remains stable as it passes through the digestive tract.

Low levels of fecal elastase may indicate pancreatic insufficiency, a condition where the pancreas does not produce enough digestive enzymes. This can lead to symptoms such as malabsorption, weight loss, diarrhea, and nutrient deficiencies.

The purpose of this test is to:

  • Measure elastase enzyme levels in stool
  • Assess pancreatic exocrine function
  • Diagnose pancreatic insufficiency
  • Evaluate causes of malabsorption and digestive issues
  • Support diagnosis of pancreatic disorders
