A member asked:

What test should a person take to diagnose hodgkin lymphoma/ non hodgkin ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It depends: Why do you raise this question? You need to give us the background medical history. Do you have enlarged lymph nodes? A biopsy of an enlarged Lymph node is the best way to check for this disease but you need to tell us if you have any symptoms suggestive of a lymphoma???
