Abstract: Lymphoma is the eighth most common type of cancer worldwide. Currently, lymphoma is
mainly classified into two main groups: Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
(NHL), with NHL accounting for 80% to 90% of the cases. NHL is primarily divided into B, T, and
natural killer (NK) cell lymphoma. Nanotechnology is developing rapidly and has made significant
contributions to the field of medicine. This review summarizes the advancements of nanobiotechnology
in recent years and its applications in the treatment of NHL, especially in diffuse large B cell lymphoma
(DLBCL), primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), and follicular lymphoma
(FL). The technologies discussed include clinical imaging, targeted drug delivery, photodynamic therapy
(PDT), and thermodynamic therapy (TDT) for lymphoma. This review aims to provide a better
understanding of the use of nanotechnology in the treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
