In a statement released by the White House on Monday, US Navy Captain Sean Barbabella, who serves as a physician to the president, gave a summary of Trump’s ‘advanced imaging results’, also known as an MRI.
Trump’s MRI scan result
According to Barbabella, Trump’s MRI focused on his cardiovascular and abdominal areas, revealing no abnormalities and confirming he is in ‘excellent health’. This preventative imaging is a standard procedure for men of his age.
“President Trump’s cardiovascular imaging is perfectly normal. There is no evidence of arterial narrowing impairing blood flow or abnormalities in the heart or major vessels,” the statement said.
According to the White House physician, overall, Trump’s cardiovascular system shows excellent health.

Earlier, on Sunday, Trump 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.
Lingering concern over Trump’s health
At 79 years old, Trump is the oldest US President in history, and ever since he assumed office in January this year, there have been concerns about his health, age, and cognitive decline. Trump and the White House have repeatedly pushed back against such speculations.
Trump confuses dementia screening to IQ test
In April, as part of a physical examination during his second term, Trump underwent a cognitive assessment called the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), a screening tool for dementia and mild cognitive impairment. The White House released the results of his full physical in April, stating he was in “excellent health” and “fully fit” to serve, and mentioned he “aced” the cognitive test.
Last month, after reports about his MRI test surfaced, Trump had bragged about how he aced the ‘IQ test’ even though it was a dementia screening test.
