Study Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to verify the opportunistic screening potential of the AI software for detection of brain unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA) on routinely performed brain NECT scans in a prospective setting in the Belgian population.
The main question the study aims to answer is: Does the AI algorithm has potential to be used as clinical screening potential for detection of brain UIA on brain NECT scans?
The performance and the clinical use of the AI algorithm will be measured based on the number of UIA detected by the AI software compared to the number of UIA confirmed by review of a radiologist compared to the number of UIA already known by review of the electronic patient file/additional diagnostic research.
Participants will be followed-up following Standard-of-Care (SoC). In addition, participants will be requested to complete a questionnaire (the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire).
Furthermore, patient outcomes, complications/death related to the possible (un)ruptured brain aneurysm will be assessed 5 years after study enrolment.

Arms & Interventions
Brain NECT scans with possible UIA detected by AI software and radiologist
Patients that have had a brain NECT scans on which the AI software detected a possible unruptured intracranial brain aneurysm (UIA) and which the radologist confirmed as possible UIA can participate in the study (= enrolled subjects). They are requested to sign Informed Consent Form (ICF) after which follow-up data regarding the untruptured intracranial aneurysm (UIA) will be gathered.
Intervention: AI software (Device)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Verify the opportunistic screening potential of the AI software for detection of brain UIA on routinely performed brain NECT scans in a prospective setting
Time Frame: an average of 1 month after subject enrolment
Secondary Outcomes
- Verify the percentage of patients that underwent treatment(s) of the UIA after detection of the possible UIA by the AI software, confirmation of possible UIA by the radiologist, and definitive diagnosis of the UIA, by review of the EPD.(Through study completion, an average of 5 years.)
- Measure the health-related quality of life of patients by completion of the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire.(From start patient recruitment until 1 month after last patient signed ICF. Questionnaire to be completed 1 months after signing ICF.)
- Verify patients' complications by review of the EPD after 5 years(5 years after patient enrolment.)
