Why do I need an Angiotensin-converting enzyme test?

You may require a serum ACE blood test to detect elevated ACE levels in disorder called Sarcoidosis. It is a condition that results in organ inflammation due to inflammatory cell granulomas formed in the body. The organs susceptible to damage are the lungs, lymph nodes, liver, skin, eyes, heart, and spleen. The specialist recommends an ACE blood test to monitor a rare illness such as Gaucher’s disease, a genetic condition causing the building up of lipids in internal organs and cells, resulting in fatigue, bruising, and bone pain. As early detection can help you identify the disease and prevent major health complications. Also, it helps the clinician to understand the underlying cause of the elevated ACE levels and provide treatment accordingly.
