Abstract

BACKGROUND: Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are a life-threatening disease. Their rupture can lead to hemorrhagic stroke. Most studies applying deep learning for the detection of aneurysms are based on angiographic images. However, critical diagnostic information such as morphology and aneurysm location are not captured by deep learning algorithms and still require manual assessments.
