The White House has released President Donald Trump’s “perfectly normal” MRI results.

According to Sky News, the 79-year-old US president recently underwent a medical evaluation, which included an MRI scan of his cardiovascular system and abdomen, conducted back in October.

The White House physician Dr Sean P. Barbabella, who confirmed the Republican president’s visit in a memo in the report released by the Trump administration, wrote that his cardiovascular and abdominal imaging was "perfectly normal."

Dr Barbabella said, “The purpose of this imaging is preventive: to identify issues early, confirm overall health, and ensure he maintains long-term vitality and function. (There was) no evidence of arterial narrowing impairing blood flow or abnormalities in the heart or major vessels.”

“The heart chambers are normal in size, the vessel walls appear smooth and healthy, and there are no signs of inflammation or clotting. ‘Everything evaluated is functioning within normal limits with no acute or chronic concerns,’ he added.

About abdominal imaging, the physician asserted that all major organs appeared to be “very healthy and well-perfused.”

Explaining the objective behind the scans, Dr Barbabella added that it is beneficial for men of Trump’s age group to get an evaluation of cardiovascular and abdominal health.

The reports were released after Trump on Sunday told reporters that his MRI results were “perfect” and he “aced” the cognitive test.

Notably, concerns regarding the American president’s health were raised multiple times this year.
