I'm guessing a big part of it is "The explored volume is 19 percent of the pyramid's volume." Eliminating the possibility of huge chambers is cool, but it would also be cool to find out if there's anything in the other 80%.

Do you know if they ever succeeded in searching the whole pyramid?

LOL! It's going on right now! As part of this exact research project!

The BBC article only mentioned infrared, but http://www.popsci.com/archaeologists-will-scan-egypts-pyrami... says the researchers are "[a]rmed with thermal imaging, muon detectors, and drone-mounted laser scanners."
