Description(CNN) -- Doctors gave U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey a clean bill of health Friday morning after he apparently had a fainting spell, according to Gina Talamona, spokeswoman for Department of Justice.

Mukasey, 67, underwent medical tests at George Washington Hospital after collapsing Thursday night at the Federalist Society dinner at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington.

The attorney general was given a CAT-scan on Friday morning which showed normal results, Talamona said. He was also given a MRI, a stress test and a stress echo-cardiogram.

"All of the tests have been reassuring. There is no indication that he suffered a stroke or any heart-related incident," Talamona said.
