“…MRA is a non-invasive examination that can accurately measure the size of aneurysms and their positional relationship with the parent artery. However, MRA has drawbacks, such as long imaging time and low resolution [ 11 ]. DSA has the advantages of high spatial resolution and has long been used as the gold standard for diagnosing intracranial aneurysms, but invasive procedures increase the risk of complications [ 12 ].…”

Background The detection and management of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are vital to prevent life-threatening complications like subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Artificial Intelligence (AI) can analyze medical images, like CTA or MRA, spotting nuances possibly overlooked by humans. Early detection facilitates timely interventions and improved outcomes. Moreover, AI algorithms offer quantitative data on aneurysm attributes, aiding in long-term monitoring and assessing rupture risks. Methods We screened four databases (PubMed, Web of Science, IEEE and Scopus) for studies using artificial intelligence algorithms to identify IA. Based on algorithmic methodologies, we categorized them into classification, segmentation, detection and combined, and then their merits and shortcomings are compared. Subsequently, we elucidate potential challenges that contemporary algorithms might encounter within real-world clinical diagnostic contexts. Then we outline prospective research trajectories and underscore key concerns in this evolving field. Results Forty-seven studies of IA recognition based on AI were included based on search and screening criteria. The retrospective results represent that current studies can identify IA in different modal images and predict their risk of rupture and blockage. In clinical diagnosis, AI can effectively improve the diagnostic accuracy of IA and reduce missed detection and false positives. Conclusions The AI algorithm can detect unobtrusive IA more accurately in communicating arteries and cavernous sinus arteries to avoid further expansion. In addition, analyzing aneurysm rupture and blockage before and after surgery can help doctors plan treatment and reduce the uncertainties in the treatment process.
