Lactate dehydrogenase (LD) is an enzyme involved in energy production. LD is found in almost all body tissues and is released during tissue damage. It is a marker of common injuries and diseases such as heart failure. This test measures the level of LD in the blood and is used to screen for tissue damage. This damage may be acute (traumatic injury or heart attack) or chronic (liver disease or anemia). It also may be used to monitor progressive conditions, such as muscular dystrophy and HIV.
