"This morning Pope Francis went to Policlinico Gemelli to undergo some medical examinations/tests and returned to the Vatican before noon"
Notice, they didn't say what for. Also one cable site (Reuters) used the term "check-up".
Sorry, usually a "check-up" is a once-over physical which may include an EKG. Extensive examinations/tests are usually not done in a "check-up". You get bloodwork and urinalysis done which is standard.
Sounds like this was not a standard "check up" which could have been done at the Vatican, because they have medical facilities and are set up for EKG's.
I bet Francis went for exams/tests for something that hasn't been disclosed, and probably is a concerning matter. Perhaps grave.
I would not be surprised.
If was nothing, a trip to the Gemelli hospital would have been unneccesary.
