Other diagnostic studies

Surgical exploration

Surgical exploration is not a routine diagnostic evaluation. However, It is the best diagnostic aspect in diagnosis of ruptured aneurysm and it has a diagnostic value even after two or more negative angiograms

Spinal angiography

Spinal angiography also should be considered in patient with SAH especially after:

• A clinical suspicion for a spinal vascular anomaly (prominent back/neck pain and radicular on examination)
• Presence of abnormal finding on other neuroimaging studies
