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.
These tests are generally used to evaluate the heart and the aorta. The echocardiogram is used to evaluate the heart valves and the thickness of the heart wall. Either CT scans or MRIs may be used to provide an accurate view of the aorta and a precise measurement of the aneurysm size. am worried about the effect that a stress test may have on my aorta. Generally an exercise stress test is not recommended for patients with aortic dissection or aortic aneurysm because of the potential of inducing hypertension, which can be harmful to the aorta.
