President Donald Trump's doctor says the commander-in-chief had MRI imaging on his heart and abdomen in October as part of a preventative screening for men his age.
The White House released a memorandum from the president's physician on Monday.
Presidential physician Dr. Sean Barbabella said in a statement that President Donald Trump’s physical exam included "advanced imaging" that is "standard for an executive physical" in Trump’s age group. Barbabella concluded that the cardiovascular and abdominal imaging was "perfectly normal."
The White House released Barbabella's memo after Trump on Sunday said he would release the results of the MRI scan.
According to the Associated Press, Trump and the White House have said the scan was "part of his routine physical examination" but had declined until Monday to detail why the president had an MRI during his physical in October at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
"I think that’s quite a bit of detail," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Monday when announcing the memo's release.
President Donald Trump discussed his MRI results while speaking to reporters as he headed back to Washington, D.C. from Florida on Sunday.
