US President Donald Trump Sunday said he is willing to release the results of an MRI he underwent in October, telling reporters that the scan was “perfect”.
“If you want to have it released, I’ll release it,” Trump said while returning to Washington from Florida, the Associated Press (AP) reported.
However, the White House has not explained why the MRI was done or which part of Trump’s body was scanned. Press secretary Karoline Leavitt said he received “advanced imaging” at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center as part of his routine physical, and that the results showed he remains in “exceptional physical health”.
Trump also told reporters he has “no idea” which part of his body was scanned. “It was just an MRI,” he said, adding, “What part of the body? It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and I aced it,” AP reported.
Trump, 79, had previously disclosed he underwent an MRI exam at Walter Reed Medical Center on October 10, but neither he nor the White House has said which part of his body was scanned.
Medical experts note that MRIs are not typically part of a routine physical. Doctors usually prescribe them to get detailed images of the spine, heart and vascular system, brain, knees, or other parts of the body.
Trump’s MRI took place during his second physical examination of the year.
