Item 4.        Ownership.
               ----------
               (a)  Amount Beneficially Owned:  As of December  31, 1997, each
                    of the following is the owner of record of the number of
                    shares of Common Stock set forth next to its name:

<TABLE>
                    <S>                           <C>
                    Cross Atlantic Partners K/S   140,875 shares
                    CAP/Hambro, L.P.                   0 shares
                    CAP/Hambro, Inc.                   0 shares
                    Hambro America, Inc.               0 shares
</TABLE>

               Additionally, Cross Atlantic Partners K/S holds presently
               exerciseable warrants to purchase 28,799 shares of Common Stock. 
               Therefore, each of CAP/Hambro L.P., CAP/Hambro, Inc., and Hambro
               America, Inc. (collectively the "Entities") may be deemed to
               beneficially own the 140,875 shares owned by Cross Atlantic
               Partners K/S as well as the 28,799 exerciseable warrants held by
               Cross Atlantic Partners K/S.  Hence Cross Atlantic Partners K/S
               and the Entities may be deemed to own beneficially an aggregate
               of  169,674 shares  (Common Stock and Warrants).

     
               (b)  Percent of Class:

<TABLE>

                    <S>                                <C>
                    Cross Atlantic Partners K/S        3.1%
                    CAP/Hambro, L.P.                   3.1%
                    CAP/Hambro, Inc.                   3.1%
                    Hambro America, Inc.               3.1%
</TABLE>

               The foregoing percentages are calculated based on the 5,429,238
               shares of Common Stock reported to be outstanding in the
               Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Impath Inc. for the quarter
               ended September 30, 1997.
