Summary

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) screening and an aging population have increased the prevalence of AAA diagnoses. Small AAAs (\<5.5cm) are monitored with ultrasound. Large AAAs may rupture and this is usually fatal. Surgery is considered at a crude size threshold of 5.5cm when the annual rupture risk reaches 5%. AAA size is the only predictor of growth and rupture available but growth is non-linear and some small AAAs rupture. Thus, only 1 in 20 patients treated at 5.5cm will have benefited from rupture prevention in the year following surgery, and others may miss out on life-saving surgery. This study will develop an imaging tool PETMRI with radiotracer Ga- DOTATATE with high clinical utility, to improve prediction of aneurysm growth and risk.
