Predicting the Future for Aneurysm Patients Ivanhoe Newswire distributed a Nov. 14 report on new computer software that provides 3-D views of a brain aneurysm, a weakened and bulging blood vessel wall in the brain. Available only at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center and one other hospital in the nation, the technology helps interventional neuroradiologists predict whether their patients aneurysms are at high risk for rupture and require surgery immediately. The story featured Dr. Satoshi ...
-An aneurysm is an abnormal widening or ballooning of a portion of a blood vessel. A cerebral aneurysm refers to a blood vessel within your brain that weakens over time and undergoes such widening. This usually occurs at the junctions of the large arteries at the base of your brain, in an area called the Circle of Willis. As the blood vessel weakens, it begins to bulge out like a balloon. Often, as an aneurysm develops, it forms a neck with an associated dome, or balloonlike structure. The ...
