* Head CT or brain MRI 
* [[Laparoscopy]] (rarely performed)
* Lumbar puncture to analyze cerebrospinal fluid.
* [[Laparotomy]] (rarely performed)
* CT or PET-CT scans
* [[Bone marrow aspiration]] and biopsy
Lesions smaller than 1 cm are not reliably visualized with PET scans. PET scan is now part of pre-treatment evaluation in diffuse large B cell lymphoma. The pre-treatment PET is particularly important to aid in the interpretation of post-treatment response evaluation according to new response criteria. PET scan has generally been used in conjunction with diagnostic CT scans.
