Aneurysms are abnormal bulges or ballooning in the wall of an artery. They can occur in various parts of the body, but are most commonly found in the brain (cerebral aneurysms) and the aorta (aortic aneurysms). Aneurysms pose a serious health risk as they can rupture, leading to severe internal bleeding and potentially fatal consequences.
Almost 3% of the people worldwide are affected by aneurysms, with cerebral aneurysms being particularly prevalent. Rupture of an aneurysm can result in hemorrhagic stroke, which has high mortality and morbidity rates. Early detection and management of aneurysms are crucial in preventing rupture and minimizing associated risks.
The dataset provided contains PHI (Protected Health Information) of 100 patients suffering from aneurysms, with information on various morphological and hemodynamic features.
‼️ Note 🗒️: Patients with multiple aneurysms have their case_id suffixed by alphabets. [For Example C1234a and C1234b are the same patient (C1234) with 2 aneurysms.]
Columns:
case_id: Unique identifier for each case
patient_id: Unique identifier for each patient
aneurysmLocation: Location of the aneurysm within the body
aneurysmType: Type of aneurysm
ruptureStatus: Indicates whether the aneurysm has ruptured or not
age: Age of the patient
sex: Gender of the patient
multipleAneurysms: Indicates whether the patient has multiple aneurysms

This dataset can be valuable for research and analysis aimed at understanding the characteristics and risk factors associated with different types of aneurysms and their rupture status. Additionally, it can contribute to the development of predictive models and treatment strategies for patients with aneurysms.
There are so many interesting insights this data can provide. Investigate and Enjoy playing around with the data!!💐
