Abstract

Radiotherapy for Hodgkin's lymphoma has evolved over time but retains a dominant position in the treatment of early stage tumours. Its indications are more limited for non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, but the techniques follow the same principles whatever the histological type. This review presents the French recommendations in terms of preparation and choice of irradiation techniques.

Keywords: Hodgkin lymphoma; Irradiation techniques; Lymphome non hodgkinien; Lymphomes hodgkinien; Non hodgkin lymphoma; Techniques d’irradiation.
