Could 3D software make brain aneurysm surgery safer and cheaper?

NCT ID NCT07433075

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a 3D simulation software called Sim&Size can help doctors plan treatments for unruptured brain aneurysms more accurately than current 2D methods. About 576 adults will be randomly assigned to use the software or standard planning. Researchers will compare hospital costs and complication rates between the two groups.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Sim&Size software (3D simulation for device placement)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could make aneurysm treatments safer, cheaper, and more precise by helping doctors choose the right implant beforehand.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study focused on costs and complications, not a new treatment. The software may not significantly improve outcomes or reduce risks.
