A member asked:

10 year old with severe migraines every couple days. had regular ct scan (no dye) was clear. could it be unruptured anuerysm? now getting temple pain. should i request more testing?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

That CT scan is too imprecise to detect intracranial aneurysms. I recommend that your child be evaluated by a pediatric neurologist. In that way, any appropriate testing will be ordered after an assessment by the specialist. You may have to get such a specialist at the department of pediatrics or of neurology at a university hospital near you.
