This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is looking at how learning you have an unruptured brain aneurysm affects your mental health — specifically anxiety and depression. Researchers want to understand whether people who choose to have their aneurysm treated with surgery feel differently than people who choose to watch and monitor their aneurysm instead. The goal is to help doctors better support patients emotionally after an aneurysm diagnosis.
Many people with unruptured brain aneurysms experience anxiety and depression after diagnosis, but doctors don't fully understand whether this is because of worry about the aneurysm itself or because of the stress of treatment decisions and procedures. This research could help identify which patients need extra mental health support.

Over 2 years, you will visit the clinic regularly and complete questionnaires about your mood, anxiety, and overall mental wellbeing. Depending on your choice, you will either receive surgical or minimally invasive treatment to secure your aneurysm, or you will undergo regular imaging scans to monitor it. Researchers will track how your mental health changes over time in each group.
