Lymphoma is cancer that begins in infection-fighting cells of the immune system, called lymphocytes.
*[Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma]] and [[Hodgkin's lymphoma (Hodgkin's disease)]] each affect a different kind of lymphocyte. Every type of lymphoma grows at a different rate and responds differently to treatment.

Within the four groups for NHL there are over 60 specific types of lymphoma. Diagnosis is by examination of a bone marrow or lymph node biopsy. Medical imaging is done to help with cancer staging. The two main categories of lymphomas are:
* other rarer lymphomas for which we don't include specific codes
