Depends on locationi: And size. I would go to a regional specialist center. In my area it is dr. Robert rosenwasser - at thomas jefferson hospital. I am sure his office might be able to help you if you call him - he is in philadelphia. But they can also be followed by mri. I have a patient whom we have follwed a 4mm aneurysm for 6 years. It was missed on open mri. But I have a 3t mri. More detail.

Likely a clip: It depends on size, location, other risk factors. They will assess all options for best result and lowest risks.

My neurologist ordered an MRI of my brain/spinal cord with and w/out contrast. Will this show blood vessels? Will it show if I have an aneurysm? Will it show tumors? I forgot to ask my doctor.
MRI with no contrast came back "abnormal" for brain scan, for possible concussion. I did move my head a bit during MRI scan. No symptoms, feel fine. Doc recommends MRI with contrast. Could the head movement be a possible cause for abnormal reading?
