Biopsy (followed by further examination)/ histopathological studies, radiography, computed tomography/CT, magnetic resonance imaging/MRI

In biopsy a piece of the suspected tissue cut into thin sections is stained and examined under microscope (histopathological studies) by a pathologist/ Radiography is use of X-rays to detect cancer/ Computed Tomography uses X-Rays to generate a three-dimensional image of the internals of an object/ MRI uses strong magnetic fields and non-ionising radiation to accurately detect pathological and physiological changes in the living tissue.
