While treatment: His highly successful, perhaps >90%, it is dependent on stage, bulk, cell type, age, and b symptoms (fever, soaking sweats, weight loss). Multi agent chemotherapy may be sufficient, but intelligent field, lower dose radiotherapy is added to areas of bulk. Marrow/stem cell used at relapse.
