A member asked:

Can a small brain aneurysm show on an mri with contrast(iodine)? i didn't get an mra and have been getting pain on left side i'm scared

Yes: MRI will show an aneurysm. Your headaches could be due to other reason. If you got an MRI done already a physician is already involved so go back to your physician so they can further investigate the cause of your headaches.
