Abstract Characterization of the rupture risk factors for small intracranial aneurysms (SIAs, ≤5 mm) is clinically valuable. The present study aims to identify image-based morphological parameters and anatomical locations associated with the rupture status of SIAs. Two hundred and sixty-three patients with single SIAs (128 ruptured, 135 unruptured) were included, and six morphological parameters, including size, aspect ratio (AR), size ratio (SR), height–width ratio (H/W), flow angle (FA) and aneurysm width–parent artery diameter ratio, and the aneurysm locations were evaluated using three-dimensional geometry, and were used to identify a correlation with aneurysm rupture. Statistically significant differences were observed between ruptured and unruptured groups for AR, SR, H/W, FA, and aneurysm locations, from univariate analyses. Logistic regression analysis further revealed that AR (p = 0.034), SR (p = 0.004), H/W (p = 0.003), and FA (p |
