What is ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME?

The Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) test measures the level of this enzyme in your blood. ACE is primarily produced in the lungs and plays a vital role in regulating blood pressure.

This test is primarily used to help diagnose and monitor sarcoidosis, an inflammatory disease affecting multiple organs. Elevated ACE levels can suggest active sarcoidosis and aid in assessing treatment effectiveness.
