Lymphoma

Supported by pioneering research, our service can diagnose and manage a type of blood cancer called lymphoma.

It develops in the lymphatic system, a network of vessels and glands that spread throughout the body as part of your immune system.

Depending on the type and location of the lymphoma, you may experience different symptoms or need different treatment.

In lymphoma, affected white blood cells start to multiply in an abnormal way and begin to collect in certain areas of the lymphatic system. This often causes a painless swelling in glands (also known as lymph nodes).

We also manage and treat leukaemia, a blood cancer that starts in white blood cells.
