US President George Bush was taken ill at a state banquet in Tokyo and rushed for treatment.
Japanese television at first said the 67-year-old president was taken by waiting ambulance to hospital, but later corrected the report and said he walked to his limousine which sped off towards the State Guest House.
Mr Bush was on the last leg of an exhausting 12-day four-nation Asia-Pacific tour.
