Cancers We Treat

The range of blood-related cancers that we treat include, among others:

• Cancers of the blood and bone marrow (which produces blood cells) such as Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL); Acute Myeloid (or Myelogenous) Leukemia (AML); Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL); Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) and Multiple Myeloma.
  
• Cancer of the lymphatic system including Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. The difference between Hodgkin’s and Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is in the type of white blood cell where the cancer originates.
  
• Myeloproliferative diseases: A group of bone marrow diseases, including polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia and myelofibrosis, in which excess cells are produced.
  
• Other disorders of the blood and bone marrow including Aplastic Anemia, when the bone marrow stops producing blood cells, and Myelodysplastic Syndrome, when bone marrow produces immature or poorly functioning bone marrow cells.
