Print this page. A brain aneurysm is usually diagnosed using a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan and angiography (MRA), or a computerised tomography (CT) scan angiography (CTA).An MRI scan is usually used to look for aneurysms in the brain that haven't ruptured.This type of scan uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of your brain. CT scan is usually preferred if it's thought the aneurysm has ruptured and there's bleeding on the brain (subarachnoid haemorrhage). This type of scan takes a series of X-rays, which are then assembled by a computer into a detailed three-dimensional image.
Detecting an aneurysm on your own is difficult since symptoms are rare. But certain people are at higher risk of developing aneurysms. Your best strategy is to know if you are at risk, to be familiar with the symptoms of an aneurysm, and to take preventive steps.
