What Causes Headache?

default
Posted on Wed, 23 Apr 2014
Question: I have a history of Brain Anuerysm Clipping done 7 years back. I have had headaches since then. So I go for a Scan every 2 years. I wanted to get an MRI Angiogram done. I wanted to know if my clip is MRI compatible?? I have never done an MRI before. In my OT materials in the billing of my surgery I see the material 'CLIP ANUERYSM XXXXXXX STD. PERM. BAYONET'. In the operation report also I see Bioset 12 mm clip.
