Hi Jim,
It is usual for the neuro's to give you the treatment options for your particular Aneurysm. I believe that Onyx is a glue. I am in the UK and I know that the hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Queen square London use it.
Coiling is done in most neuro hospitals. I have had a pipeline stent to treat mine which does not involve coils.

Dr. Kevin McGrail who is the Chief Neurosurgeon at Georgetown University Hospital in Washington DC. I was not a candidate for the Onyx procedure, but he was picked the NIH to conduct a clinical study of this procedure. Excellent doctor with great communication skills and even better surgical skills. He successfully clipped my aneursym and treated a blood clot. Definitely recommend a consult with him.
