Trump Says MRI Was 'Perfect' After Visit to Walter Reed

Overview

• Speaking aboard Air Force One on Oct. 27, Trump said he underwent an MRI and described the result as "perfect."
• The scan took place on Oct. 10 at Walter Reed, marking an uncommon second hospital visit in a year when presidents typically have one comprehensive exam.
• Trump declined to say why the MRI was performed, and the White House has not provided an explanation or treatment details.
• Earlier this month, the president's physician said Trump was in "exceptional health" following a medical evaluation.
• A July letter from White House physician Sean Barbabella attributed leg swelling to chronic venous insufficiency and hand bruising to frequent handshakes and aspirin use.
