US President Donald Trump on Sunday said he is willing to make public the results of an MRI scan he underwent during a medical visit in October. Speaking to reporters while flying back to Washington from Florida, Trump said, “If you want to have it released, I’ll release it,” adding that the results were “perfect.”

However, the president said he does not know which part of his body was scanned. “It was just an MRI,” he said. “What part of the body? It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and I aced it.”

The MRI was carried out during Trump’s visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in October. The White House has declined to specify why the scan was conducted or which body part was examined. Press secretary Karoline Leavitt has only said Trump received “advanced imaging” as part of a routine physical and that the results showed he remains in “exceptional physical health.”

The renewed focus on the MRI followed a social media exchange with Tim Walz, who publicly challenged Trump to release the report after a separate political dispute.
