The Sound of Ideas - Brain Aneurysms; Inside a Suicide Hotline & "The Story of a Face"
A brain aneurysm, an abnormal buldge in a weakened vessel wall inside the brain, is a serious medical issue. A burst aneurysm can be deadly. But there's encouraging treatment news, including blood-flow diverting stents that don't require open surgery. Do those carry risk? Should all aneurysms be treated? I'm Mike McIntyre. The latest in aneurysm treatment, tomorrow morning at 9 on the Sound of Ideas. Later, we'll take you inside a suicide hotline. And, we'll bring you the story of the youngest woman in the US to receive a face transplant.
