    Author: Tomoka T, Montgomery ND, Powers E, Dhungel BM, Morgan EA, Mulenga M, Gopal S, Fedoriw Y.
    Journal: Clin Lab Med; 2018 Mar; 38(1):91-100. PubMed ID: 29412887.
    Abstract:
    The care of patients with lymphoma relies heavily on accurate tissue diagnosis and classification. In sub-Saharan Africa, where lymphoma burden is increasing because of population growth, aging, and continued epidemic levels of human immunodeficiency virus infection, diagnostic pathology services are limited. This article summarizes lymphoma epidemiology, current diagnostic capacity, and obstacles and opportunities for improving practice in the region.
