The cost-effective posttreatment surveillance strategy in each stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The cfEBV DNA-guided MRI + CT + BS and cfEBV DNA-guided PET/CT refer to routine clinical and physical examinations and cfEBV DNA tests, followed by further imaging studies when the results are positive. Abbreviations: BS, bone scintigraphy; cfEBV, cell-free Epstein-Barr virus; CT, computed tomography; H&P, history and physical examination; MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; PET/CT, positron emission tomography/computed tomography; T, test
