The number of specialists doesn't surprise me but CT angiography, D-dimer, and proBNP together suggests his medical team believes he's at a high risk for heart failure.
President Trump had 22 medical specialists assess him as part of his latest checkup, according to a medical report recently released by the White House, who also declined to identify which physicians assessed him.

raising the interesting question, "what if ancient buryat shamans had had access to angiography"
my bestie has been at medical school for two weeks and so far all she's learnt about is bones. the body has three layers, woman, not one. you'd do best to remember that.

Just finished getting a Coronary CT Angiography. They had trouble getting my heart rate and blood pressure to go down. Which was why I was getting the CT scan. So they had to give me an extra dose of meds which made me light headed. I'm resting now.

Advanced imaging is the legit medical terminology for CT and MRI. They probably did a virtual angiography to check for coronary artery disease.
