Recent developments in the therapy of non-Hodgkin lymphoma have improved response and survival rates in patients with these conditions. This book is focused on the biology, prognostic factors and novel targets of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. We believe that understanding the pathophysiology of non-Hodgkin lymphoma provides a mean to improve its risk-stratification and treatment. This book is intended for medical and healthcare professionals involved in the research and clinical care of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
