The rupture risk prediction of unruptured intracranial aneurysm (IA) is very important in clinical practice and increased knowledge of predictors for IA rupture is needed. IA wall permeability has great potential for aneurysm rupture risk prediction, and can be quantified by DCE-MRI. In this study, we measured IA wall permeability using DCE-MRI, and compared it with established clinical/imaging risk metrics. We found IA wall permeability may be independent of aneurysm size and IA wall enhancement providing distinctive information for IA rupture risk prediction.
