Understanding Lymphoma
Lymphoma is a blood cancer affecting the lymphatic system. It may cause lymph node swelling, fever, night sweats, weight loss, or fatigue.
Treatment depends on lymphoma type, stage, symptoms, biopsy report, and PET CT findings.
A proper lymph node biopsy and staging workup are important before treatment.
