US EditionLeavitt says Trump ‘remains in exceptional health’ following MRI question
- On Wednesday, the White House declined to provide specific details of medical images taken during a physical a month ago, while Karoline Leavitt said radiologists agreed President Donald Trump remains in exceptional health.
- Reporters pressed Leavitt last week about the reason for the MRI scan, which was absent from the doctor's readout despite Mr. Trump last month revealing it occurred at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
- Mr. Trump said doctors provided `a very conclusive` rundown and described the MRI as `was perfect`; it was his second medical visit this year after a full physical in April.
- Reporters pressed the issue, and Karoline Leavitt offered no new details about why the October MRI was done, raising fresh questions about President Donald Trump's health after a July exam for leg swelling.
- The White House said the president received advanced imaging as part of his routine physical exam, and officials previously reported a July exam diagnosed President Donald Trump with chronic venous insufficiency.
