Get specific parameterized type with reflection

I know that i can get parameterized types of a class in the following way:

Type[] genericInterfaces = getClass().getGenericInterfaces();
for (Type genericInterface : genericInterfaces) {
    if (genericInterface instanceof ParameterizedType) {
        ParameterizedType type = (ParameterizedType) genericInterface;
        // do something 
    }
}

But suppose i need to check for a specific parameterized type, like List<T>. The type offers getRawType().getTypeName() and i could compare that to the class name (or simple class name, i am not sure) of List. Is this the right way to go?
