Burden of incidental cerebral aneurysms on lifestyle and quality of life: a survey of patients in expectant management (the SPICE Study).

Background: The increasing availability of neuroimaging tests has led to a rise in the identification of incidental unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs). Their management is under debate, with no consensus on their follow-up strategy, which can cause anxiety in patients. Our aim is to evaluate the impact of diagnosis and imaging follow-up on daily activities and quality of life.
