Lymphoma Treatment

Lymphoma treatment generally involves a combination of therapies aimed at destroying cancer cells in the lymphatic system. Common treatments include chemotherapy, which uses powerful drugs to kill cancer cells; radiation therapy, which uses high-energy rays to target and shrink tumors; and immunotherapy, which boosts the body's immune system to fight cancer. In some cases, targeted therapies focus on specific characteristics of cancer cells. Bone marrow or stem cell transplants may also be considered to restore healthy blood cells. The treatment plan depends on the lymphoma type, stage, and individual patient factors, and is tailored to achieve the best possible outcome.
