Best Answer

A serum gastrin level is ordered to determine the level of the hormone gastrin. A blood sample is used to determine the hormone level. High levels of gastrin indicate the presence a duodenal ulcer or a gastrinoma. If your doctor suspects you may have one of these conditions this could be the reason that you would get this test done.
