==Differential Diagnosis==
General imaging differential considerations include:
*Gastrointestinal leiomyoma:
:*Most common in the oesophagus, accounting for 75% of mesenchymal tumours 1
:*Rare in the remainder of the gastrointestinal tract
*Gastrointestinal leiomyosarcoma: rare
*Gastrointestinal lymphoma / gastric lymphoma:
:*More extensive mural thickening
:*Aeurysmal dilatation common
*Gastrointestinal schwannoma
*Gastrointestinal carcinoid<ref>{{Cite web | title =Gastrointestinal stromal tumour

Overview

Around 75 % of the patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are asymptomatic and the rest have non-specific symptoms such as vague abdominal pain and discomfort. Thus, GIST must be differentiated from other tumors on the basis of cell markers. GIST must be differentiated from other mesenchymal tumors such as gastrointestinal leiomyoma, gastrointestinal leiomyosarcoma, gastrointestinal carcinoma, gastrointestinal schwannoma and melanoma.

Differential Diagnosis

Around 75 % of the patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are asymptomatic and the rest have non-specific symptoms such as vague abdominal pain and discomfort. Thus, GIST must be differentiated from other tumors on the basis of cell markers. GIST must be differentiated from other mesenchymal tumors such as gastrointestinal leiomyoma, gastrointestinal leiomyosarcoma, gastrointestinal carcinoma, gastrointestinal schwannoma and melanoma.[1][2][3][4]
