How does a hematologist/oncologist treat lymphoma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varies: The treatment of lymphoma depends on the type of lymphoma, its stage (extent), its features on tissue stains, lab and imaging findings, and age and general health of the patient. Treatment can range from watchful waiting/observation, radiation therapy, chemotherapy/immunotherapy, and high-dose chemotherapy followed by stem cell rescue (transplantation).
