Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1. Interim Unaudited Financial Information

   The accompanying interim unaudited condensed financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions 
to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not 
contain all of the information and footnotes required by generally 
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In 
the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed 
financial statements reflect all adjustments, (consisting of normal 
recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of 
the Company's financial position as of September 30, 1996 and December 31, 
1995, the results of its operations for the three and nine month periods ended 
September 30, 1996 and 1995, and its cash flows for the nine month periods 
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. These financial statements should be read 
in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company as 
of  December 31, 1995 and 1994 and for each of the three years in the 
period ended December 31, 1995, including notes thereto, included in the 
Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Commission File No. 333-
380). Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform with 
current period presentation.

   Operating results for the three month and nine month periods ended 
September 30, 1996 may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may 
be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996 or any other future period.

2. Equity Financing

   On April 23, 1996, the Company's initial public offering (the IPO) of 
900,000 shares of its common stock at $11.00 per share became effective. 
The Company received net proceeds of $8,211,000.

   On May 23, 1996, the Company's Managing Underwriter, Donald and Co. 
Securities, Inc., under the terms of the over-allotment option provided  
in the IPO, completed the sale of an additional 135,000 shares of the 
Company's common stock, at $11 per share. The Company received net 
proceeds of $1,321,000.

   Proceeds from the offering were used primarily to repay short term debt, 
reduce outstanding accounts payable and to provide working capital for the 
Company.

    The Managing Underwriter received, under the terms of the underwriting 
agreement, four year warrants to purchase 90,000 shares of the Company's 
Common Stock at a price of $13.20 per share commencing April 23, 1997.

    In connection with a Bridge Loan (Note 5, below), the lender received 
three-year warrants (the "Bridge Loan Warrants") to purchase 31,818 and 
227,272 shares of the Company's Common Stock at a price per share equal to 
the initial public offering price ($11.00 per share) and $8.80 per share, 
respectively. The Bridge Loan Warrants were exercised in full at various 
times during the month of August 1996 with the Company receiving proceeds 
from the exercise of $2,349,992.

3.  Net Loss Per Share

   Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of 
common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the periods.  
Common equivalent shares consist of stock options and warrants (using the
treasury stock method).  Common equivalent shares from stock options are
excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive, except that
pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
common and common equivalent shares issued from January 1, 1995 through the
effective date of the Company's initial public offering on April 23, 1996 
(see Note 2 above) have been included in the computation using the treasury
stock method as if they were outstanding for all periods prior the effective 
date.

4.  Inventories

   The components of inventory consist of the following (in thousands):

5.     Short-term Debt

   In December 1995, the Company entered into a $2,000,000 Bridge Loan 
Agreement ("Agreement," or the "Bridge Loan") with a lender.  Under the 
Agreement, the Company had drawn $1,000,000 as of December 31, 1995. In 
February, 1996 the Company borrowed the remaining $1,000,000 available 
under the bridge loan. The Bridge Loan was repaid in full on May 1, 1996 in 
accordance with the terms of the agreement.

   In connection with the Bridge Loan, the lender received the Bridge Loan 
Warrants described in Note 2, above. The aggregate fair value of the Bridge 
Loan Warrants, as determined at the date of issuance, is $1,330,000. Such 
value represents a discount that was amortized as a financing cost over the 
period that the Bridge Loan was outstanding.

6.  Long-term Debt

   In September 1995, the Company obtained a $500,000 lease line under a 
Master Lease Agreement. This lease line is to provide financing for the 
purchase of computers, office automation and other equipment. As of September 
30, 1996 the total amount drawn under this lease line is $165,000.

      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
             CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Overview

   Except for the historical information contained herein, the following
discussion contains forward looking statements that involve risks or 
uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ materially from
those discussed here. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this
section, general economic and political conditions, world events impacting 
airline security, and those discussed in the Company's Registration Statement 
Form S-1 (Commission File 333-380) and amendments thereto. 

Results of Operations

   The operating loss for the third quarter of 1996 decreased to $376,000 
from $542,000 in the third quarter of 1995. Continuing losses from 
operations are anticipated through the end of 1996 as the Company prepares for 
future growth by investing in manufacturing, service, sales and 
administrative infrastructure.

   Unit shipments are expected to increase over time as the CTX 5000 continues 
to achieve greater market awareness and acceptance, and as the market for 
explosive detection systems is more fully developed. Management anticipates 
this growth in unit shipments will be moderate through the end of the year due 
to the long sales cycle and complexity of the technology.

   Product Sales in the third quarter of 1996 increased 33% to $4.0 million 
from $3.0 million in the third quarter of 1995. The increase was primarily 
due to changes in product configurations leading to an increase in the average 
selling price for system sales as well as sales of add-on products to current 
customers.

   Contract Revenues in the third quarter of 1996 increased to $315,000 
from $135,000 primarily due to increased activity under a new FAA grant which 
did not exist in the third quarter of 1995. The Company's FAA revenues do not 
include a significant margin as they primarily represent a reimbursement of 
development costs incurred. 

   Product Gross Margins increased to 43% in the third quarter of 1996 
from 32% in the third quarter of 1995. The increase is primarily due to 
better efficiencies and overhead absorption based on the increased 
number of units produced, sold and in process.

   Research and Development expenses increased to $611,000 in the third 
quarter of 1996, as compared to $536,000 in the third quarter of 1995.  
This increase reflects the effects of personnel additions and costs of 
prototype development incurred as the Company enhances the current CTX 5000 
system. The Company expects to continue to increase its investment in 
Research and Development expenses.

   Selling, General and Administrative Expenses increased to $1,488,000 in
the third quarter of 1996 from $1,007,000 in the third quarter of 1995.  The
increase is primarily due to headcount related expenses and infrastructure 
required to transition to a fully operating international enterprise. These 
expenses are expected to continue to grow in response to increased unit 
shipments and efforts by the Company to expand acceptance of our technology 
and develop the market.

         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- Continued


   Interest Expense decreased to $7,000 in the third quarter of 1996 
from $65,000 in the third quarter of 1995. This decrease is direct result of 
the repayment of debt from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

   The Company's cash balance at September 30, 1996 was $6,381,000, an 
increase of $4,454,000 from the cash balance of $1,927,000 at December 31, 
1995.  The Company's working capital at September 30, 1996 was $6,681,000, 
an increase of $10,192,000 from the working capital deficit of $3,511,000 at 
December 31, 1995.

   The Company's Initial Public Offering was completed on April 30, 1996, 
resulting in net proceeds to the Company (after underwriting discounts and 
expenses) of approximately $8.2 million.  $2,000,000 of such proceeds were 
immediately used to repay the Bridge Loan (Note 5, above). Additional funds 
were used to reduce the Company's outstanding balance in accounts payable. 
The Company also repaid the $2,000,000 outstanding balance under its Line-of-
Credit agreement with San Paolo Bank. On May 23, 1996 the Company's 
Underwriter exercised its over-allotment option for an additional 135,000 
shares of Common Stock resulting in additional net proceeds of $1.3 million.

   In connection with the Bridge Loan, the lender received three-year 
warrants to purchase 31,818 and 227,272 shares of the Company's Common Stock 
at a price per share equal to the initial public offering price ($11.00 per 
share) and $8.80 per share, respectively. During the month of August 1996 
these warrants were exercised by the lender. The Company received net 
proceeds from the exercise of $2,349,992. 

   In February 1996, the Company entered into a subcontract with Imatron 
Federal Systems, Inc. (IFS) to perform activities under a Federal Aviation 
Administration (FAA) grant which was awarded to IFS. Such subcontract will 
provide up to $2.0 million to the Company during 1996 to fund research and 
development efforts towards increasing throughput and lowering the cost of the 
CTX 5000. To date InVision has received $433,000 under this grant. Amounts not 
utilized during 1996 are expected to be carried forward to 1997.  The Company 
was also notified that IFS may receive up to an additional $2.1 million from 
the FAA in 1997, of which the Company expects to receive $2.0 million, for 
further throughput enhancement and cost reduction activities to begin in 
1997. This most recent award represents a continuation of FAA funding of new 
product development by the Company.

   The Company believes that, based on current estimates, the present cash 
balances and cash generated from operations, including funds to be received 
under FAA grants, will be sufficient to meet its operating requirements into 
the second quarter of 1997. Substantial increases in sales order volume, and 
the associated increase in production costs to fill those orders, could 
create a requirement for additional capital. Management believes that 
additional sources of liquidity, if required, could be obtained through 
credit lines, other financing instruments or the issuance and sale of 
additional debt or equity of the Company, although there can be no assurances 
that such additional sources of financing can be obtained.
