                          Common Stock, $.01 par value

                         ------------------------------


        This Prospectus relates to 712,500 shares (the "Shares") of the Common
Stock, $.01 par value ("Common Stock"), of CompuRAD, Inc. (the "Company"), a
Delaware corporation, which may be offered from time to time by certain
stockholders listed on the Selling Stockholders table (the "Selling
Stockholders") for their own benefit. It is anticipated that the Selling
Stockholders will offer the Shares for sale at prevailing prices in the
over-the-counter market on the date of sale. The Company will receive no part of
the proceeds of sales made hereunder. All expenses of registration incurred in
connection with this offering are being borne by the Company, but all selling
and other expenses incurred by the Selling Stockholders will be borne by such
Selling Stockholders. None of the Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus has
been registered prior to the filing of the Registration Statement of which this
Prospectus is a part.


                         ------------------------------



        The Selling Stockholders and any broker executing selling orders on
behalf of the Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within
the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in
which event commissions received by such broker may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions under the Securities Act.

        The Common Stock of the Company is traded in the over-the-counter
market. On April 10, 1997, the closing price of the Company's Common Stock, as
reported by The Nasdaq SmallCap Market in The Wall Street Journal, was $6.00

                                PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

        The Company has been advised by the Selling Stockholders that they
intend to sell all or a portion of the shares offered hereby from time to time
in the over-the-counter market and that sales will be made at prices prevailing
at the times of such sales. The Selling Stockholders may also make private sales
directly or through a broker or brokers, who may act as agent or as principal.
In connection with any sales, the Selling Stockholders and any brokers
participating in such sales may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning
of the Securities Act.

        Any broker-dealer participating in such transactions as agent may
receive commissions from the Selling Stockholders (and, if such broker acts as
agent for the purchaser of such shares, from such purchaser). Usual and
customary brokerage fees will be paid by the Selling Stockholders.
Broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified
number of shares at a stipulated price per share, and, to the extent such a
broker-dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for the Selling Stockholders,
to purchase as principal any unsold shares at the price required to fulfill the
broker-dealer commitment to the Selling Stockholders. Broker-dealers who acquire
shares as principal may thereafter resell such shares from time to time in
transactions (which may involve crosses and block transactions and which may
involve sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the
nature described above) in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated
transactions or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at
negotiated prices, and in connection with such resales may pay to or receive
from the purchasers of such shares commissions computed as described above.

        The Company has advised the Selling Stockholders that Regulation M
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") may
apply to sales in the market, has furnished the Selling Stockholders with a copy
of this Regulation and has informed them of the need for delivery of copies of
this Prospectus. The Selling Stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that
participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain
liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act. Any
commissions paid or any discounts or concessions allowed to any such
broker-dealers, and, if any such broker-dealers purchase shares as principal,
any profits received on the resale of such shares, may be deemed to be
underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

        Upon the Company's being notified by the Selling Stockholders that any
material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of
shares through a cross or block trade, the Company may, in its discretion, file
a supplemental prospectus under Rule 424(c) under the Securities Act, setting
forth the name of the participating broker-dealer(s), the number of shares
involved, the price at which such shares were sold by the Selling Stockholders,
the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed by the Selling
Stockholders to such broker-dealer(s), and where applicable, that such
broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set
out in this Prospectus.

<PAGE>   6
        Any securities covered by this Prospectus which qualify for sale
pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under that Rule rather
than pursuant to this Prospectus.

        There can be no assurances that the Selling Stockholders will sell any
or all of the shares of Common Stock offered hereunder.


                            SECURITIES TO BE OFFERED

        The Shares offered hereby are shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value, of
the Company. Each share of such Common Stock entitles the holder to one vote on
matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders (cumulative voting may not be
invoked in connection with the election of directors). Subject to preferences
that may be applicable to any Preferred Stock outstanding at the time, holders
of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may
be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally
available therefor. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the Company, holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets
remaining after payment of the Company's liabilities and the liquidation
preference, if any, of any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. Holders of
Common Stock have no preemptive rights and no rights to convert their Common
Stock into any other securities, and there are no redemption provisions with
respect to such shares. All of the outstanding shares of Common Stock are fully
paid and non-assessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of
Common Stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the
holders of shares of any series of Preferred Stock which the Company may
designate and issue in the future. While the Board of Directors has authority,
within certain limitations, to issue shares of Preferred Stock which would have
one or more preferences over the Common Stock, no Preferred Stock is currently
outstanding and the Company has no present plans to issue any Preferred Stock.

                                STOCK OPTION PLAN


WHAT IS THE STOCK OPTION PLAN?

      The Company's Stock Option Plan, (the "Option Plan") was adopted by the
Board of Directors and approved by shareholders in 1994 to enable key employees
and other persons affiliated with the Company or any parent or subsidiary to own
stock in the Company. The Company has reserved 500,000 pre-split shares of
Common Stock for issuance under the Option Plan.

      The Option Plan is not a qualified deferred compensation plan under 401(a)
of the Code nor is it subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974. (The Option Plan will expire by its own terms in
the year 2004, unless terminated sooner by the Board of Directors of the
Company.)


WHAT TYPES OF GRANTS ARE PERMITTED UNDER THE OPTION PLAN?

      The Option Plan permits the Company to grant Nonstatutory Stock Options
(NSOs). This grant is described below. The "Tax Information" section summarizes
the tax treatment of this grant.


WHO ADMINISTERS THE OPTION PLAN?

      The Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company administers the Option
Plan. Members of the Board generally are elected for three-year terms but can be
removed from office for "cause" upon a sufficient vote of the shareholders.

      The Board has final authority to interpret any provision of the Option
Plan or any grant made under the Option Plan.


WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE OPTION PLAN?

      Employees, directors and consultants of the Company or any parent or
subsidiary of the Company are eligible to receive NSOs.


                                       
<PAGE>   11
WHO SELECTS THE EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS WHO RECEIVE GRANTS?

      The Board selects the employees, directors and consultants who receive
options under the Option Plan, and, subject to the provisions of the Option
Plan, determines the terms of each option and right and the number of shares
subject to each option and right.


WHAT IS A STOCK OPTION?

      An option is a right to buy stock in the future at a predetermined price.
NSOs are options that do not qualify for preferred tax treatment under Section
422 of the Code.

      The Board determines the term of each option and the time each option may
be exercised. However, the term of an option may not exceed fifteen years from
the date of grant.

      The exercise price of an option shall be the net book value of a share of
the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant.

      If an optionee terminates his or her employment or consulting relationship
for any reason, his or her option may be exercised to the extent it was
exercisable on the date of such termination for a period of time determined by
the Board at the time the option is granted. In the case of a termination other
than for disability or death, the period for exercise of an option following
termination generally will be three months. In the case of a termination for
disability or death, the period for exercise following termination generally
will be twelve months. In no event may an option be exercised after the
expiration of the original term of the option.

      The Board determines how an optionee may pay the exercise price of an
option. The Option Plan specifically states that a check is an acceptable form
of consideration.


WHAT TERMS APPLY TO ALL AWARDS?

      Written Agreements. Awards granted under the Option Plan are evidenced by
a written agreement between the Company and the employee or consultant to whom
the award is granted.

      Rule 16b-3. Awards granted to persons subject to Section 16 Insiders are
subject to any additional applicable restrictions of Rule 16b-3. See "Additional
Considerations Applicable to Section 16 Insiders."


                                       -2-
<PAGE>   12
      Non-transferability of Options. Awards granted under the Option Plan are
non-transferable by the participant, other than by will, the laws of descent and
distribution, or by transfers approved in advance by formal resolution of the
Board of Directors of the Company, and may be exercised during the lifetime of
the participant only by him or her, his approved assignee or legal
representative.

      Adjustment on Changes in Capitalization. In the event any change, such as
a stock split or dividend, is made in the Company's capitalization which results
in an increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock
without receipt of consideration by the Company, an appropriate adjustment will
be made in the price of each option and in the number of shares subject to each
option. In the event of a proposed dissolution, liquidation, merger or
combination in which the Company is not a surviving corporation, all outstanding
options will automatically terminate thirty days after the effective date of
such dissolution, liquidation, merger, or combination. Within said thirty day
period, the optionee may exercise his option in whole or in part, to the extent
that it shall not have been previously exercised.

      Amendment and Termination. The Board of Directors may amend, alter, or
discontinue the Option Plan at any time, but such amendment, alteration, or
discontinuation may not adversely affect any outstanding option or stock
issuance unless mutually agreed otherwise between the optionee and the
Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the optionee and
the Company. To the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Rule 16b-3
under the Exchange Act or Section 422 of the Code (or any other applicable law
or regulation), the Company must obtain stockholder approval of certain
amendments to the Option Plan in the manner and to the degree required by such
laws and regulations.


ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR "AFFILIATES" OF THE COMPANY

      Certain officers and directors of the Company are considered "affiliates"
of the Company, as that term is defined in Rule 144(a) under the Securities Act.
Affiliates may resell Common Stock subject to the restrictions of Rule 144 or
pursuant to an effective registration statement. Rule 144 requires that resales
by affiliates satisfy the following conditions: (1) the resale must be made
through a broker in an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in a direct
transaction with a "market maker," as those terms are defined under the Exchange
Act; (2) certain information about the Company must be publicly available; (3)
the amount of Common Stock sold in any three-month period must not exceed the
limits of Rule 144(e); and, if applicable, a Form 144 must be timely filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the resale is pursuant to a
registration statement, it may not be made in reliance on the registration
statement on Form S-8 filed in connection with the issuance of the shares
described in this prospectus.

                                 TAX INFORMATION

      The following is a brief summary of the effect of U.S. federal income tax
laws upon options granted under the Option Plan based on U.S. federal securities
and income tax laws in effect on January 1, 1997.

      THIS SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO BE EXHAUSTIVE AND DOES NOT DISCUSS THE TAX
CONSEQUENCES OF A PARTICIPANT'S DEATH OR THE PROVISIONS OF ANY INCOME TAX LAWS
OF ANY MUNICIPALITY, STATE OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH AN OPTIONEE MAY RESIDE.
AN OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE TAXATION OF
THESE OPTIONS.

      Nonstatutory Stock Options. With respect to NSOs: (i) no income is
recognized by the optionee at the time the option is granted; (ii) generally, at
exercise, ordinary income is recognized by the optionee in an amount equal to
the difference between the option exercise price paid for the shares and the
fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise, and the Company is
entitled to a tax deduction in the same amount; and (iii) upon disposition of
the shares, any gain or loss is treated as capital gain or loss. In the case of
an optionee who is also an employee at the time of grant, any income recognized
upon exercise of an NSO will constitute wages for which withholding will be
required.

           ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO SECTION 16 INSIDERS

      In certain circumstances, where the participant is an officer (as that
term is used in Section 16 of the Exchange Act), director or beneficial owner of
more than 10% of the Common Stock of the Company, the date upon which tax
liability is incurred with respect to grants under the Option Plan may be
deferred unless the optionee or right holder files an election with the Internal
Revenue Service under Section 83(b) of the Code. All Section 16 Insiders are
advised to consult with their personal tax advisors regarding the tax
consequences of exercising options or rights under the Option Plan and the
advisability of filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code. In addition,
all Section 16 Insiders are advised to consult with the Company's general
counsel and with their own personal advisors regarding reporting and liability
under Section 16 with respect to their transactions under the Option Plan.

                               THE COMPURAD, INC.

                                 1996 STOCK PLAN


WHAT IS THE 1996 STOCK PLAN?

      The Company's 1996 Stock Plan, (the "1996 Plan") was adopted by the Board
of Directors and approved by shareholders in 1996 to enable employees and
consultants of the Company or any parent or subsidiary to own stock in the
Company and to take advantage of the tax benefits allowed by the Internal
Revenue Code to employer stock option plans. The Company has reserved 400,000
shares of Common Stock for issuance under the 1996 Plan.

      The 1996 Plan is not a qualified deferred compensation plan under 401(a)
of the Code nor is it subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974. (The 1996 Plan will expire by its own terms in the
year 2006, unless terminated sooner by the Board of Directors of the Company.)


WHAT TYPES OF GRANTS ARE PERMITTED UNDER THE 1996 PLAN?

      The 1996 Plan permits the Company to grant Incentive Stock Options (ISOs),
Nonstatutory Stock Options (NSOs) and Rights to Purchase Stock. These grants are
described below. The "Tax Information" section summarizes the tax treatment of
each of these grants.


WHO ADMINISTERS THE 1996 PLAN?

      A compensation committee composed of directors (the "Committee") appointed
by the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company administers the 1996
Plan. Members of the Board generally are elected for three-year terms but can be
removed from office for "cause" upon a sufficient vote of the shareholders.

            The Committee has final authority to interpret any provision of the
1996 Plan or any grant made under the 1996 Plan.


WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE 1996 PLAN?

      Employees, directors and consultants of the Company or any parent or
subsidiary of the Company are eligible to receive NSOs and Rights to Purchase
Stock.

      Only employees of the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company
are eligible to receive ISOs.


                                       
<PAGE>   18
WHO SELECTS THE EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS WHO RECEIVE GRANTS?

      The Committee selects the employees, directors and consultants who receive
options and rights to purchase stock under the 1996 Plan, and, subject to the
provisions of the 1996 Plan, determines the terms of each option and right and
the number of shares subject to each option and right.


WHAT IS A STOCK OPTION?

      An option is a right to buy stock in the future at a predetermined price.
ISOs are options that qualify for preferred tax treatment under Section 422 of
the Code. NSOs are options that do not qualify as ISOs.

      The Committee determines the term of each option and the time each option
may be exercised. However, the term of an option may not exceed ten years from
the date of grant.

      The Committee also determines the option exercise price. However, the
exercise price of an ISO may not be less than the fair market value of the
Common Stock on the date of grant. Under certain circumstances, the exercise
price of an ISO may not be less than 110% of the fair market value on the date
of grant.

      If an optionee terminates his or her employment or consulting relationship
for any reason, his or her option may be exercised to the extent it was
exercisable on the date of such termination for a period of time determined by
the Committee at the time the option is granted. In the case of a termination
other than for disability or death, the period for exercise of an option
following termination generally will be three months. In the case of a
termination for disability or death, the period for exercise following
termination generally will be twelve months. In no event may an option be
exercised after the expiration of the original term of the option.

      The Committee determines how an optionee may pay the exercise price of an
option. The 1996 Plan specifically states that the following are acceptable
forms of consideration: cash, check, promissory note, certain other shares of
Common Stock, "cashless exercise", a reduction in the amount of any Company
liability to the optionee, any other form of consideration permitted by
applicable law or any combination thereof.

      The Committee may at any time offer to buy out, for a payment in cash,
promissory note or Common Stock of the Company, any outstanding option, based on
such terms and conditions as the Committee shall establish and communicate to
the optionee at the time such offer is made.


                                       -2-
<PAGE>   19
WHAT IS A RIGHT TO PURCHASE STOCK?

      A right to purchase stock is a right to buy Common Stock of the Company.
The terms and conditions under which stock may be purchased pursuant to a right
to purchase stock are determined by the Committee. Upon the grant of a right to
purchase stock, the Company may retain the right to repurchase the Common Stock
at its original purchase price if the employment relationship, directorship or
consulting relationship of the grantee is terminated. The repurchase right shall
lapse at a rate determined by the Committee.


WHAT TERMS APPLY TO ALL AWARDS?

      Written Agreements. Awards granted under the 1996 Plan are evidenced by a
written agreement between the Company and the employee or consultant to whom the
award is granted.

      Rule 16b-3. Awards granted to persons subject to Section 16 Insiders are
subject to any additional applicable restrictions of Rule 16b-3. See "Additional
Considerations Applicable to Section 16 Insiders."

      Non-transferability of Options. Awards granted under the 1996 Plan are
non-transferable by the participant, other than by will or the laws of descent
and distribution, and may be exercised during the lifetime of the participant
only by him or her.

      Adjustment on Changes in Capitalization. In the event any change, such as
a stock split or dividend, is made in the Company's capitalization which results
in an increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock
without receipt of consideration by the Company, an appropriate adjustment will
be made in the price of each option and right and in the number of shares
subject to each option and right. In the event of a proposed dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, all outstanding options and rights will
automatically terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed
action.

      Effect of Acquisition of the Company. In the event of the merger of the
Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of substantially all of
the assets of the Company, each outstanding option and stock purchase right may
be assumed or substituted for by the successor corporation (or a parent or
subsidiary of the successor corporation). If the successor does not assume or
substitute for the outstanding options or stock purchase right, the optionee
shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise the option or stock purchase
right as to all of the optioned stock, including shares as to which it would not
otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an option or stock purchase right becomes
fully vested and exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event
of a merger or sale of assets, the Administrator shall notify the optionee in
writing or electronically that the option or stock purchase right shall be fully
vested and exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such
notice, and the option or stock purchase right shall terminate upon the
expiration of such period. For the purposes of this paragraph, the option or
stock purchase right shall


                                       -3-
<PAGE>   20
be considered assumed if, following the merger or sale of assets, the option or
right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each share of optioned stock
subject to the option or stock purchase right immediately prior to the merger or
sale of assets, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or
property) received in the merger or sale of assets by holders of Common Stock
for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders
were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the
holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if
such consideration received in the merger or sale of assets is not solely common
stock of the successor corporation or its parent, the Administrator may, with
the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be
received upon the exercise of the option or stock purchase right, for each share
of optioned stock subject to the option or stock purchase right, to be solely
common stock of the successor corporation or its parent equal in fair market
value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the
merger or sale of assets.

      Amendment and Termination. The Board of Directors may amend, alter,
suspend or discontinue the 1996 Plan at any time, but such amendment,
alteration, suspension or discontinuation may not adversely affect any
outstanding option or stock issuance unless mutually agreed otherwise between
the optionee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and
signed by the optionee and the Company. To the extent necessary and desirable to
comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or Section 422 of the Code (or any
other applicable law or regulation), the Company must obtain stockholder
approval of certain amendments to the 1996 Plan in the manner and to the degree
required by such laws and regulations.


ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR "AFFILIATES" OF THE COMPANY

      Certain officers and directors of the Company are considered "affiliates"
of the Company, as that term is defined in Rule 144(a) under the Securities Act.
Affiliates may resell Common Stock subject to the restrictions of Rule 144 or
pursuant to an effective registration statement. Rule 144 requires that resales
by affiliates satisfy the following conditions: (1) the resale must be made
through a broker in an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in a direct
transaction with a "market maker," as those terms are defined under the Exchange
Act; (2) certain information about the Company must be publicly available; (3)
the amount of Common Stock sold in any three-month period must not exceed the
limits of Rule 144(e); and, if applicable, a Form 144 must be timely filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the resale is pursuant to a
registration statement, it may not be made in reliance on the registration
statement on Form S-8 filed in connection with the issuance of the shares
described in this prospectus.

                                 TAX INFORMATION

      The following is a brief summary of the effect of U.S. federal income tax
laws upon options and rights to purchase stock granted under the 1996 Plan based
on U.S. federal securities and income tax laws in effect on January 1, 1997.

      THIS SUMMARY IS NOT INTENDED TO BE EXHAUSTIVE AND DOES NOT DISCUSS THE TAX
CONSEQUENCES OF A PARTICIPANT'S DEATH OR THE PROVISIONS OF ANY INCOME TAX LAWS
OF ANY MUNICIPALITY, STATE OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH AN OPTIONEE MAY RESIDE.
AN OPTIONEE SHOULD CONSULT HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE TAXATION OF
THESE OPTIONS.

      Incentive Stock Options. No taxable income is recognized by the optionee
upon the grant or exercise of an ISO (unless the alternative minimum tax rules
apply). If Common Stock is issued to an optionee pursuant to the exercise of an
ISO, and if no disqualifying disposition of the shares is made by the optionee
within two years after the date of grant or within one year after the issuance
of such shares to the optionee, then (i) upon the resale of such shares, any
amount realized in excess of the option exercise price will be treated as a
long-term capital gain and any loss sustained will be a long-term capital loss,
and (ii) no deduction will be allowed to the Company for federal income tax
purposes.

      If Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of an ISO is disposed of before
the expiration of either holding period described above, generally (i) the
optionee will recognize ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount
equal to the excess (if any) of the fair market value of the shares at exercise
(or, if less, the amount realized on the disposition of the shares) over the
option exercise price paid for such shares, and (ii) the Company is entitled to
a tax deduction in the same amount. Any further gain or loss realized by the
participant will be taxed as short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, as
the case may be, and will not result in any deduction by the Company. Different
rules may apply if shares are purchased by an optionee who is also a Section 16
Insider. For the rules that apply to Section 16 Insiders with respect to any
grants made under the 1996 Plan, see the discussion below under "Additional
Considerations Applicable to Section 16 Insiders."

      If an option designated as an ISO first becomes exercisable in any
calendar year for shares whose aggregate fair market value exceeds $100,000,
such excess shares will be treated for income tax purposes as purchased on
exercise of an NSO. For purposes of this rule, (1) all ISOs granted by the
Company to an optionee are aggregated, (2) the fair market value of an option
share is its value on the date of grant of the option, and (3) options are taken
into account in the order in which they are granted.

      Alternative Minimum Tax. The exercise of an ISO granted under the 1996
Plan may subject the optionee to the alternative minimum tax ("AMT") under
Section 55 of the Code. In computing alternative minimum taxable income, shares
purchased upon exercise of an ISO are treated as if they had been acquired by
the optionee pursuant to an NSO. This may be particularly significant if shares
subject to a repurchase option of the Company are purchased upon exercise of an
ISO or if the optionee is subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. See
"Nonstatutory Stock Options," above. Under certain circumstances, an optionee
may affect the timing and measurement of AMT by filing an election with the
Internal Revenue Service under Section 83(b) within 30 days after the date of
<PAGE>   22
exercise of an ISO. Accordingly, an optionee should consult his or her own tax
advisor prior to exercising an ISO concerning the advisability of filing an
election under Section 83(b) of the Code for alternative minimum tax purposes.

      If an optionee pays AMT in excess of his or her regular tax liability, the
amount of such AMT relating to ISOs may be carried forward as a credit against
any subsequent years' regular tax in excess of the AMT.

      Nonstatutory Stock Options. With respect to NSOs: (i) no income is
recognized by the optionee at the time the option is granted; (ii) generally, at
exercise, ordinary income is recognized by the optionee in an amount equal to
the difference between the option exercise price paid for the shares and the
fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise, and the Company is
entitled to a tax deduction in the same amount; and (iii) upon disposition of
the shares, any gain or loss is treated as capital gain or loss. In the case of
an optionee who is also an employee at the time of grant, any income recognized
upon exercise of an NSO will constitute wages for which withholding will be
required.

      Rights to Purchase Stock. Generally, no income will be recognized by a
recipient in connection with the grant of a right to purchase stock or the
exercise of the right for unvested stock, unless an election under Section 83(b)
of the Code is filed with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days of the
date of exercise of the right to purchase stock. Otherwise, as the Company's
repurchase right lapses, the recipient generally recognizes compensation income
in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the stock
at the time the Company's repurchase right lapses and the amount paid for the
stock, if any. Generally, the recipient will be subject to tax consequences
similar to those discussed under "Nonstatutory Stock Options." In the case of a
recipient who is also an employee, any amount treated as compensation will be
subject to tax withholding by the Company. The Company will be entitled to a tax
deduction in the amount and at the time the recipient recognizes ordinary income
with respect to a right to purchase stock.

           ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO SECTION 16 INSIDERS

      In certain circumstances, where the participant is an officer (as that
term is used in Section 16 of the Exchange Act), director or beneficial owner of
more than 10% of the Common Stock of the Company, the date upon which tax
liability is incurred with respect to grants under the 1996 Plan may be deferred
unless the optionee or right holder files an election with the Internal Revenue
Service under Section 83(b) of the Code. All Section 16 Insiders are advised to
consult with their personal tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of
exercising options or rights under the 1996 Plan and the advisability of filing
an election under Section 83(b) of the Code. In addition, all Section 16
Insiders are advised to consult with the Company's general counsel and with
their own personal advisors regarding reporting and liability under Section 16
with respect to their transactions under the 1996 Plan.

                           QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT

                               THE COMPURAD, INC.

                        1996 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN


WHAT IS THE EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN?

      The Company's 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan")
provides you with the opportunity to acquire shares of common stock of the
Company at a discounted price through payroll deductions.

      The Purchase Plan allows you to:

            -     Invest up to 10% of your compensation through payroll
                  deductions.

            -     Purchase CompuRAD, Inc. common stock at a discount of 15%.

      The Purchase Plan is not a qualified deferred compensation plan under
Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),
and is not subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974. The Purchase Plan will continue in effect for a term of ten (10)
years, unless terminated sooner by the Board of Directors. A total of 100,000
shares are reserved for issuance under the Purchase Plan.


HOW DOES THE PURCHASE PLAN WORK?

      The Purchase Plan has two offering periods each year of approximately six
months, starting with the first trading days on or after January 1 and July 1 of
each year, or on such date as the Board shall determine. If you are an eligible
employee of the Company, you may authorize payroll deductions of up to 10% of
your "compensation," as defined below. The amounts deducted are held in an
account in your name and, at the end of each six-month offering period, applied
to purchase shares of common stock. The purchase price will be 15% less than the
fair market value on either the first day of the offering period or the last day
of the offering period, whichever is lower.

      The Purchase Plan includes provisions for changes in payroll deductions,
withdrawal from participation and the effect of termination of employment.
<PAGE>   27
WHO IS ELIGIBLE?

      You are eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan if, at the beginning
of an offering period, you are a regular employee of the Company scheduled to
work at least twenty hours per week and at least five months per year.

      However, you may not participate in the Purchase Plan if, together with
any shares you would otherwise be entitled to purchase under the Purchase Plan,
you would own five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding stock of the Company.
In addition, you may not buy more than a total of $25,000 worth of the Company's
common stock (determined on the first day of the offering period) under the
Purchase Plan in any one calendar year.


HOW DO I ENROLL?

      You may enroll in the Purchase Plan by completing a subscription agreement
and submitting it to the Company's payroll office before the beginning of the
next offering period. Your subscription agreement will remain in effect for
successive offering periods until it is revised or revoked by you.


IF I DECIDE NOT TO ENROLL RIGHT NOW, WILL I HAVE ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY?

      Yes. You may enroll before any subsequent offering period during which the
Purchase Plan is in effect. However, you may not enroll in an offering period
after the enrollment date has passed.


HOW MUCH MAY I CONTRIBUTE?

      You may contribute through payroll deduction up to 10% of your
"compensation." For this purpose, compensation means your base pay only.

      Once you have authorized the contributions, they will be deducted from
your paycheck each pay period and held in an account in your name until the
completion of the purchase period.


MAY I MAKE A CASH CONTRIBUTION TO THE PURCHASE PLAN IN ADDITION TO MY PAYROLL
DEDUCTION?

      No.


                                       -2-
<PAGE>   28
DO I AUTOMATICALLY OWN A SHARE OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK AS SOON AS ITS COST
HAS BEEN DEDUCTED FROM MY COMPENSATION?

      No. The stock is actually bought only twice a year, on the last trading
day of each offering period. You must be employed by the Company on the option
exercise date for the stock to be purchased for you.


WHAT PRICE WILL I PAY?

      The purchase price will be 85% of the fair market value on the first or
last trading day of the offering period, whichever is lower.

      The fair market value is determined by the board as provided in the
Purchase Plan, but generally is the closing sale price of the Common Stock on
the applicable date.


HOW MANY SHARES CAN I BUY?

      The maximum number of shares any one employee may purchase during a single
offering period is determined by dividing $12,500 by the fair market value of a
share of Company stock on the first day of the offering period. If your
contributions exceed the amount necessary to purchase this maximum number of
shares, these excess contributions will be returned to you promptly after the
end of the applicable purchase period.

      Within this limit, the number of shares purchased depends on the fair
market value of the Company's Common Stock on the first and last trading day of
the offering period and the total amount of your contributions by the end of the
offering period. On the last day of the offering period (the option exercise
date), your accumulated contributions will be used to purchase whole shares at
the purchase price.

      You will not buy a fraction of a share. Any cash remaining will
automatically be rolled over into the next offering period.

      Example: If the market price on the applicable date is $10.00, then 85% of
that price is $8.50. If your payroll deductions for the offering period amount
to $300.00, you would be able to purchase 35 shares (300 / 8.50). The balance of
$2.50 would be held in your account for the next offering period.

      There is also a limit on the number of shares available under the Purchase
Plan. If this limit is reached, the available shares will be allocated on a pro
rata basis.


                                       -3-
<PAGE>   29
MAY I BEGIN PARTICIPATING IN THE MIDDLE OF AN OFFERING PERIOD?

      No. To participate in an offering period, you must enroll before the
beginning of that offering period.


MAY I INCREASE OR DECREASE MY PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS DURING AN OFFERING PERIOD?

      Yes. You may increase or decrease your rate of payroll deductions during
an offering period by submitting a new subscription agreement.


MAY I WITHDRAW FROM THE PURCHASE PLAN AT ANY TIME?

      Yes. If you find it necessary to withdraw from the Purchase Plan, simply
complete the CompuRAD, Inc. 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan Notice of
Withdrawal Form and send it to the Company's payroll office prior to the end of
the offering period. Your payroll deductions will stop, and you will be issued a
check for the balance in your account within a reasonable time period. If you do
withdraw from the Purchase Plan, you cannot rejoin until the next offering
period.


WHAT HAPPENS TO THE SHARES PURCHASED?

      As promptly as practicable after the close of each offering period, a
certificate representing the shares purchased will be delivered to you.


WHAT RECORDS WILL I RECEIVE REGARDING MY ACCOUNT?

      You will receive a statement of your account at least once a year. The
statement will summarize your total contribution, per share purchase price, the
number of shares purchased and any remaining cash balance.


DO I RECEIVE INTEREST ON MY PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS?

      No.


WHAT HAPPENS IF I GO ON A LEAVE OF ABSENCE OR ON LONG-TERM DISABILITY?

      Generally, if at any time you cease to be actively employed by the Company
or a designated subsidiary for a period of more than 90 days, you will be
withdrawn from the Purchase Plan and the payroll deductions accumulated in your
account will be returned to you. You may rejoin the


                                       -4-
<PAGE>   30
Purchase Plan on your return to active status by filing a new subscription
agreement through the normal enrollment process.


HOW IS THE PURCHASE PLAN ADMINISTERED?

      The Purchase Plan is administered, at the Company's expense, by the Board
of Directors of the Company or a committee of members of the Board appointed by
the Board. All questions of interpretation or application of the Purchase Plan
are determined by the Board of Directors or its committee, whose decisions are
final and binding upon all participants.

      Members of the board are elected by the shareholders for terms of
approximately one year and may be removed from office upon a sufficient vote of
shareholders. Members of the board or committee receive no additional
compensation for administering the plans.


HOW DOES THE COMPANY USE THE FUNDS FROM THE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN?

      All funds held by the Company under the Purchase Plan may be used by the
Company for any corporate purpose. Funds received by the Company upon the
purchase of shares under the Purchase Plan will be added to the Company's
general funds and used for working capital purposes.


WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE IS A STOCK SPLIT, STOCK DIVIDEND, OR OTHER CHANGE
AFFECTING THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK?

      The number of shares reserved under the Purchase Plan will be increased
proportionately in the event of a stock split or stock dividend. In the event of
any other change affecting the Company's Common Stock, the board of directors of
the Company will make the necessary adjustments.


CAN THE PURCHASE PLAN BE AMENDED?

      Yes, the Board of Directors of the Company may amend the Purchase Plan,
except that certain amendments require shareholder approval.


CAN MY RIGHTS TO PURCHASE STOCK WITH PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS BE ASSIGNED TO ANYONE
ELSE?

      No.

WHAT RESTRICTIONS MIGHT APPLY TO THE RESALE OF THE SHARES I ACQUIRE?

      Certain officers and directors of the Company may be deemed to be
"affiliates" of the Company as that term is defined under the Securities Act of
1933. Common Stock acquired under the Purchase Plan by an affiliate may only be
reoffered or resold pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant
to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or another exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. Such reoffers or resales may
not be made in reliance on the Registration Statement filed in connection with
the shares of Common Stock issued as described in this Purchase Plan Summary.

                  EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN TAX IMPLICATIONS


      The discussion below summarizes the federal income tax consequences of the
grant and exercise of a stock option under an Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as
defined in Section 423 of the Code. It also summarizes the tax consequences of
the subsequent sale or other disposition of shares acquired under such options.
This summary is not intended to be exhaustive and may not cover all tax aspects
of every situation.


First Day of the Offering Period

      You are not taxed at the beginning of the offering period.


Date of Purchase of Stock

      You are not taxed when shares are purchased for you at the end of the
offering period, even though your purchase price will be the lower of 85% of the
fair market value on the first or last day of the offering period.


Date of Sale of Shares

      If you sell your shares two years or more after the beginning of the
offering period (the "Statutory Holding Period"):

      1.    At the time you sell the shares, any gain up to 15% of the market
            value of the shares at the beginning of the offering period is
            taxable as ordinary income, and any further gain is taxable as
            long-term capital gain.

      2.    Any loss is treated as long-term capital loss.

      If you sell your shares before the end of the Statutory Holding Period:

      1.    At the time you sell the shares, the difference between your
            purchase price and the fair market value of the shares on the date
            of purchase is taxable as ordinary income.

      2.    The difference between the amount you receive on the sale of the
            shares and the fair market value of the shares on the date of
            purchase is taxable as capital gain or loss.

Tax Deduction by Company

      If you sell your shares before the end of the Statutory Holding Period,
the Company is entitled to a tax deduction corresponding to the ordinary income
you recognize under the rules discussed above. For this reason, when you sell
any shares you purchase under the Employee Stock Purchase
<PAGE>   33
Plan, you must notify the Company in writing within 30 days of the sale. At any
time, the Company may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from your
compensation the amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding
obligations.


Disposition Other than Sale

      If you give away or otherwise dispose of your shares before the end of the
Statutory Holding Periods, the difference between your purchase price for the
shares and their fair market value on the date of purchase is taxable to you as
ordinary income. If you give away or otherwise dispose of the shares after the
Statutory Holding Periods have elapsed, an amount up to 15% of the market value
of the shares at the beginning of the offering period is taxable to you as
ordinary income.


Tax Consultation

      SINCE TAX IMPLICATIONS OF THE EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN CAN BE COMPLEX,
WE SUGGEST THAT YOU CONTACT YOUR TAX ADVISOR WITH QUESTIONS SPECIFIC TO YOUR
SITUATION.

      Not applicable.

Item 6. of Form S-8.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

            The Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws contain
certain provisions relating to the limitation of liability and indemnification
of directors and officers. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides
that directors of the Company may not be held personally liable to the Company
or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty, except
for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the
Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or
which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under
Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, relating to prohibited
dividends, distributions and repurchases or redemptions of stock, or (iv) for
any transaction from which the director derives an improper benefit. However,
such limitation does not limit the availability of non-monetary relief in any
action or proceeding against a director. In addition, the Company's Certificate
of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify its
directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware law.


                                      II-1
<PAGE>   36
            The Company has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors
and executive officers, in addition to indemnification provided for in the
Company's Bylaws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify the Company's
directors and executive officers for certain expenses including attorneys' fees,
judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any
action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of the Company
arising out of such person's services as a director or executive officer of the
Company, a subsidiary of the Company or any other company or enterprise to which
the person provides services at the request of the Company.

Item 7. of Form S-8.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

      The 712,500 shares of Common Stock to be resold by the Selling
Stockholders named in the Prospectus prepared in accordance with Form S-3 were
issued by the Company to the Selling Stockholders pursuant to an exemption from
registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of Rule 144 thereof. The shares
were purchased pursuant to privately negotiated Stock Subscription Agreements in
connection with the Selling Stockholders' employment with the Company and other
agreements entered into by the stockholders and the Company. The Selling
Stockholders have represented their intention to acquire the securities for
investment only and not with a view to the distribution thereof, and their
agreement with the Company requires appropriate legends to be affixed to the
stock certificates representing the shares so purchased. The Selling
Stockholders had access, by means of their employment relationship with the
Company, to sufficient information to make an informed investment decision.

Item 9. of Form S-8.  Undertakings.

        The Company hereby undertakes:

        (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such
information in the Registration Statement;


                                      II-2
<PAGE>   37
        (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

        (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.

        (4) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each filing of the Company's annual report pursuant to Section
13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by
reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.

        (5) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the items described in Item 6 of
Part II of this Registration Statement, or otherwise, the Company has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of
1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company
of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted
by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court
of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
