lymphoma treatment guidelines

Lymphoma treatment plans depend on the type (Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin), stage, and patient health. Common options include chemotherapy (drugs to kill cancer cells), radiation therapy (using high-energy rays), targeted therapy (drugs that attack specific cancer features), immunotherapy (boosting the immune system), or stem cell transplants. Treatments aim to eliminate cancer, prevent relapse, and maintain quality of life. Doctors tailor therapies based on individual factors and may combine approaches. Regular follow-up is essential to monitor response and manage side effects. Advances continue to improve outcomes and reduce treatment-related risks.
