Blood cancer
Blood cancer is a broad term encompassing diseases in which blood cells grow too much or develop abnormally. Typically, blood cancers are classified into three main categories – leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma – but they can be further divided into dozens of specific types, each with unique features.
A wide range of therapies are available for treating blood cancer, from chemotherapy and targeted therapy to radiation, stem cell transplant, and surgery. When devising a suitable treatment plan for blood cancer, healthcare providers take into account various factors, such as age, overall health, the specific type of blood cancer, and potential treatment side effects.
