2. Viral antigen detection
   1. Direct immunofluorescence
   2. Immunohistochemical assay
3. Virus DNA detection
   1. PCR
   2. Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR)
   3. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP)
   4. Sequencing
4. Serological analyses
   1. Type-specific ELISA
   2. Immunofluorescence
