U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed that he had an MRI scan during a recent health check and said it was "perfect".

Trump, speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One as he traveled to Japan, said his doctors had provided a "very conclusive" update after his assessment and that he has been highly transparent about his health.

"The doctor said some of the best reports for the age. Some of the best reports they've ever seen," Trump said.

If there was anything negative in the results, "I would let you know," Trump said, adding: "I wouldn't run. I'd do something."
