Article Synopsis
- - The study aims to assess the feasibility of using PET imaging (specifically with 18F-FDG and 68Ga-DOTANOC tracers) to evaluate inflammation in the walls of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA) prior to surgical treatment.
- - Patients scheduled for surgery will undergo a series of imaging tests and sample collections to measure the uptake of the tracers in aneurysms and relate it to various clinical and histological factors.
- - The research has received ethical approval and intends to share its findings through scientific publications and conferences, contributing to the understanding of UIA and arterial inflammation.

Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess trends in the detection rates of asymptomatic unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) using brain CTA/MRA from 2005 to 2019, revealing a notable increase in detection frequencies during this period.
- - Analysis of data from over 81,000 scans indicated a significant rise in new UIA cases, with a detection rate growth from 1.7% (2005-2009) to 3.4% (2015-2019), particularly among older age groups.
- - The findings suggest a trend toward increased identification of smaller UIAs, specifically less than 5 mm, raising important considerations for the management of these asymptomatic conditions in clinical practice.*
