- Computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen (abdominal CT) – when tumor diseases such as EBV-associated lymphomas (tumors of the lymphatic tissue) are suspected.
- Computed tomography of the thorax/chest (thoracic CT) – in suspected tumor diseases such as the EBV-associated lymphomas (tumors of the lymphatic tissue).
- Magnetic resonance imaging of the skull (cranial MRI, cranial MRI or cMRI) – in suspected EBV-associatedTumor diseases of the head such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma (cancer of the nasopharynx).
