By Gabe WhisnantShareNewsweek is a Trust Project memberThe White House on Monday released new details about President Donald Trump’s recent MRI, describing the results as “perfectly normal” and part of his routine executive physical.
According to a summary from Physician to the President Sean P. Barbabella, advanced cardiovascular and abdominal imaging was conducted as a preventive measure common for men in Trump’s age group.
The report said there was no evidence of arterial narrowing, inflammation, clotting or abnormalities in the heart, major blood vessels, or any abdominal organs, all of which appeared healthy and functioning within normal limits. The physician said the findings confirm that Trump “remains in excellent overall health.”
Trump said Sunday he would release the results of the MRI he underwent in October as part of his annual physical.
“If you want to have it released, I’ll release it,” Trump told reporters while traveling back to Washington from Florida, adding that the results were “perfect.”
Trump said Sunday he has “no idea” which body part was imaged. “It was just an MRI,” he said. “What part of the body? It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and I aced it.”
