The survival rates of people

Submitted by Ross Bonander on Tue, 03/30/2010 - 19:48.

The survival rates of people with NHLs differ from subtype to subtype, and there are between 50-60 subtypes. However, according to the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results stats on NHL, the overall 5-year relative survival rate is about 70%, meaning 70% of people with lymphoma are still alive 5 years after diagnosis.

Keep in mind though that this statistic is by its very nature 5 years old, and doesn't take into account any medical advances from the last five years.
