A statement from the hospital said several "basic pathological tests" would be carried out, the BBC reported.
The tests "may continue for several more days", the statement added.
It, however, did not divulge any further information about Pavarotti, who is being treated in the cancer ward.
Media reports claimed in recent days that doctors had given a clean bill of health to Pavarotti.
