3. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
   No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," effective January 1, 1993.
   This statement superseded SFAS No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which
   was adopted by the Company in 1987.  As a result of the
   Restructuring/Distribution and subsequent earnings history, some of the
   uncertainties regarding the Company's potential for utilization of its net
   operating loss carryforwards and tax credits have been reduced, and certain
   of the reserves against its deferred tax asset were determined to no longer
   be required.  As a result, reserves totaling $1,803,000 were reversed
   in the first quarter of 1994.  Of this amount, $919,000 related to tax
   benefits arising out of the exercise of stock options in prior years and,
   as a result, were recognized in paid in capital and did not impact the
   consolidated statement of operations.

4. Revenues from the discontinued operations for the quarter ending
   March 31, 1993 were $48.8 million.

                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the first quarter ended March 31, 1994, OEC Medical Systems, Inc. had net
income of $2.3 million compared with income from continuing operations of $2.3
million reported in the same period of 1993.  The results for the first quarter
of 1994 include a tax benefit of $.8 million, or $.06 per share, from the
reversal of certain reserves against deferred tax assets which were established
upon the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109 in the
first quarter of 1993.

The following table sets forth OEC's operating results as a percent of net
sales:

SALES AND MARKETS

Net product sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1994, were $20.4 million
compared to net product sales of $20.3 million for the comparable period of
1993.  Product sales were basically flat in light of selling off of the prior
model C-Arm inventory which included a higher proportion of demonstration
equipment in preparation for the new Series 9600, also impacting results was the
continued softness in markets due to uncertainty surrounding the
administration's healthcare program, as well as competitive pressures.  The
uncertainty surrounding the


                             See accompanying notes
                                   Page 6 of 9

<PAGE>

adminstration's healthcare program was a major factor in the urology market
where system prices tend to be higher and therefore subject to greater
limitations on capital expenditures.

Service revenue increased from $2.4 million to $2.9 million for the first
quarter of 1994, primarily due to a higher capture rate of service contracts.


MARGIN ANALYSIS

OEC's gross margin expressed as a percentage of net sales declined in the first
quarter compared with the same period in 1993.  This was primarily a result of
a higher proportion of demonstration equipment sales of the previous model C-Arm
in anticipation of the introduction of the new Series 9600 Mobile Digital
Imaging System in March of 1994.

Service expenses as a percentage of net sales were down compared to the first
quarter of 1993.  This was accomplished through better  efficiency in manpower
and lower expenses in relationship to systems under service contracts.


OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses were higher in the first quarter ended March 31, 1994 at
34.6% of net sales as compared to 33.2% of net sales for the same period of
1993.  This was a result of higher expenses associated with the introduction of
the new Series 9600 Mobile Digital Imaging System.  Research and development
expense increases were directly related to increased efforts on the introduction
of the Series 9600.  Increases in sales and marketing expenses were due to
higher incentives given to the sales force in order to sell the prior model C-
Arm and expense associated with the introduction of the Series 9600  in March of
1994.

Administrative expense was lower for the three months ended March 31, 1994
versus the same period in 1993 due to the reduction of  legal expenses and
regulatory expenses.


INCOME TAXES

Due to the net loss carryforwards, OEC has booked no provision for domestic
income taxes in the first quarter of 1994.  OEC has a tax benefit of $.8 million
or $.06 per share for the reversal of certain reserves against deferred tax
assets.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 1994, OEC had cash and temporary cash investments of $7.5 million.
There are no current material commitments for capital expenditures.

Cash provided by operations for the first quarter of 1994 was $2.9 million,
compared with $1.0 million used by continuing operations in the comparable
period of 1993.  This increase was due primarily to improved collections of
accounts receivables.  Capital expenditures for the first quarter of 1994
totalled $1.0 million, which was higher than the same period in 1993.  The
increase was due to additional tooling and fixtures associated with the new
Series 9600 Mobile Digital Imaging System.

On February 10, 1994, OEC arranged a $10 million unsecured line of credit with
Zions First National Bank in Salt Lake City as a funding source for working
capital requirements.  The Company does not anticipate any significant borrowing
at this time.

                             See accompanying notes

OEC is required to make an installment payment of approximately $5 million to
Diasonics Ultrasound, Inc. in June 1994 in connection with the restructuring of
the Company in October 1993.  Despite such payment, OEC believes that is has
adequate liquidity to sustain anticipated growth through the coming twelve
months.

     credits as shall be appropriate in connection with the credit facility.

     account, which statements shall be considered to be correct and
     conclusively binding on Borrower unless Borrower notifies Lender to the
     contrary within thirty (30) days after Borrower's receipt of any such
     statement which Borrower deems to be incorrect.

Loans, obligations and duties owed by Borrower to Lender, Borrower (and others,
if required) shall grant to Lender any agreed to Security Interests in such

     PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTERESTS.  Borrower agrees to execute such

     execution of this Agreement, Borrower will execute one or more UCC
     financing statements and any similar statements as may be required by
     applicable law, and will file such financing statements and all such

     of executing any documents necessary to perfect or to continue any Security
     Interest.  Lender may at any time, and without further authorization from
     Borrower, file a carbon, photograph, facsimile, or other reproduction of
     any financing statement for use as a financing statement.  Borrower will
     reimburse Lender for all expenses for the perfection, termination, and the
     continuation of the perfection of Lender's security interest in the
     Collateral.  Borrower promptly will notify Lender of any change in
     Borrower's name including any change to the assumed business names of
     Borrower.  Borrower also promptly will notify Lender of any change in

     keep correct and accurate records of the Collateral, all of which records
     shall be available to Lender or Lender's representative upon demand for
     inspection and copying at any reasonable time.  With respect to the

     NOTIFICATION BASIS.  In case of default causing collateralization of the
     line of credit, Borrower agrees and understands that this Loan shall be on
     a notification basis pursuant to which Lender shall directly collect and
     receive all proceeds and payments from the Accounts in which Lender has a
     security interest.  In order to facilitate the foregoing, Borrower agrees
     to deliver to lender, upon demand, any and all of Borrower's records,

       (c)  Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance satisfactory
       to Lender and in favor of beneficiaries satisfactory to Lender, provided
       that Lender may refuse to issue a Letter of Credit due to the nature of
       the transaction or its terms or in connection with any transaction where
       Lender, due to the beneficiary or the nationality or residence of the
       beneficiary, would be prohibited by any applicable law, regulation, or

EXHIBIT "A".  An exhibit, titled "EXHIBIT "A"," is attached to this Agreement
and by this reference is made a part of this Agreement just as if all the
provisions, terms and conditions of the Exhibit had been fully set forth in this
Agreement.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT:  Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default
under this Agreement:

     DEFAULT ON INDEBTEDNESS.  Failure of Borrower to make any payment when due
     on the Loans.

     DEFAULT IN FAVOR OF THIRD PARTIES.  Should Borrower default under any loan,
     extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or
     any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person that may
     materially affect any of Borrower's property or Borrower's ability to repay
     the Loans or perform their respective obligations under this Agreement or
     any of the Related Documents.

     FALSE STATEMENTS.  Any warranty, representation, or statement made or
     furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower or any Grantor under this
     Agreement or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material
     respect, either now or at the time made or furnished.

     DEFECTIVE COLLATERALIZATION.  This Agreement or any of the Related
     Documents ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any
     Security Agreement to create a valid and perfected Security Interest) at
     any time and for any reason.

     INSOLVENCY.  The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a
     going business, insolvency, appointment of a receiver for any part of
     Borrower's property, any assignment for the benefit of creditors, any type
     of creditor workout, or the commencement of any proceeding under any
     bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.

     CREDITOR OR FORFEITURE PROCEEDINGS.  Commencement of foreclosure or
     forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
     repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower, against any
     collateral securing the Indebtedness, or by any governmental agency.  This
     includes a garnishment, attachment, or levy of a material nature on or of
     any of Borrower's deposit accounts with Lender.  However, this Event of
     Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower, as
     the case may be, as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is
     the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, and if Borrower gives
     Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and
     furnishes reserves or a surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture
     proceeding satisfactory to Lender.

     CHANGE IN OWNERSHIP  Any change in ownership of twenty-five percent (25%)
     or more of the common stock of Borrower by one purchase.

     INSECURITY.  Lender, in good faith, deems itself insecure.

     RIGHT TO CURE.  If any default, other than a Default on Indebtedness, is
     curable and if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, has not been given
     a notice of a similar default within the preceding twelve (12) months, it
     may be cured (and no Event of Default will have occurred) if Borrower or
     Grantor, as the case may be, after receiving written notice from lender
     demanding cure of such default:  (a) cures the default within fifteen (15)
     days; or  (b) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately
     initiates steps which Lender deems in Lenders sole discretion to be
     sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continues and completes all
     reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as
     reasonably practical.

EFFECT OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT.  If any Event of Default shall occur, all
commitments and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related
Documents or any other agreement immediately will terminate (including any
obligation to make Loan Advances or disbursements, and, at Lender's option, all
Loans immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any kind to
Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type described i
the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be automatic and not
optional.  In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and remedies provided
in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or otherwise.  Except
as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights and remedies
shall  be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently.  Election
by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy,
and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation
of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's right to declare a
default and to exercise its rights and remedies.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.  The following miscellaneous provisions ar a part of
this Agreement:

     AMENDMENTS.  This Agreement, together with any Related Documents,
     constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the

ARBITRATION PROVISIONS:

       (a)  Any controversy or claim between or among the parties,  including
       but not limited to those arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
       any agreements or instruments relating hereto or delivered in connection
       herewith, and including but not limited to a claim based on or arising
       from an alleged tort, shall at the request of any party be determined by
       arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the
       American Arbitration Association.  The arbitration proceedings shall be
       conducted in Salt Lake City, Utah.   The arbitrator(s) shall have the
       qualifications set forth in subparagraph (c) hereto.  All statutes of
       limitations which would otherwise be applicable in a judicial action
       brought by a party shall apply to any arbitration or reference
       proceedings hereunder.

       (b)  In any judicial action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
       this Agreement or any agreements or instruments relating hereto or
       delivered in connection herewith, including but not limited to a claim
       based on or arising from an alleged tort, if the controversy or claim is
       not submitted to arbitration as provided and limited in subparagraph (a)
       hereto, all decisions of fact and law shall be determined by a reference
       in accordance with Rule 53 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or
       Rule 53 of the Utah Rules of Civil Procedure or other comparable,
       applicable reference procedure.  The parties shall designate to the
       court the referee(s) selected under the auspices of the American
       Arbitration Association in the same manner as arbitrators are selected
       in Association-sponsored arbitration proceedings.  The referee(s) shall
       have the qualifications set forth in subparagraph (c) hereto.

       (c)  The arbitrator(s) or referee(s) shall be selected in accordance
       with the rules of the American Arbitration Association from panels
       maintained by the Association.  A single arbitrator or referee shall be
       knowledgeable in the subject matter of the dispute.  Where three
       arbitrators or referees conduct an arbitration or reference proceeding,
       the claim shall be decided by a majority vote of the three arbitrators
       or referees, at least one of whom must be knowledgeable in the subject
       matter of the dispute and at least one of whom must be a practicing
       attorney.  The arbitrator(s) or referee(s) shall award recovery of all
       costs and fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees, administrative
       fees, arbitrators' fees, and court costs).   The arbitrator(s) or
       referee(s) also may grant provisional or ancillary remedies  such as,
       for example, injunctive relief, attachment, or the appointment of a
       receiver, either during the pendency of the arbitration or reference
       proceeding or as part of the arbitration or reference award.

       (d)  Judgment upon an arbitration or reference award may be entered in
       any court having jurisdiction, subject to the following limitation:  the
       arbitration or reference award is binding upon the parties only if the
       amount does not exceed Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000.00); if the
       award exceeds that limit, either party may commence legal action for a
       court trial de novo.  Such legal action must be filed within thirty (30)
       days following the date of the arbitration or reference award; if such
       legal action is not filed within that time period, the amount of the
       arbitration or reference award shall be binding.  The computation of the
       total amount of an arbitration or reference award shall include amounts
       awarded for arbitration fees, attorneys' fees, interest, and all other
       related costs.

       (e)  At the Lender's option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or
       mortgage may be accomplished either by exercise of a power of sale under
       the deed of trust or by judicial foreclosure.  The institution and
       maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional
       or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any
       party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to
       arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.

       (f) Notwithstanding the applicability of other law to any other
       provision of this Agreement. the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C.    1
            ET SEQ., shall apply to the construction and interpretation of this
       arbitration paragraph.

     CAPTION HEADINGS.  Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience
     purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
     of this Agreement.

     MULTIPLE PARTIES; CORPORATE AUTHORITY.  All obligations of Borrower under
     this Agreement shall be joint and several, and all references to Borrower
     shall mean each and every Borrower.  This means that each of the persons
     signing below is responsible for all obligations in this Agreement.

     CONSENT TO LOAN PARTICIPATION.  Borrower agrees and consents to Lender's
     sale or transfer, whether now or later, of one or more participation
     interests in the Loans to one or more purchasers, whether related or
     unrelated to Lender.  Lender may provide, without any limitation
     whatsoever, to any one or more purchasers, or potential purchasers, any
     information or knowledge Lender may have about Borrower or about any other
     matter relating to the Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any rights to
     privacy it may have with respect to such matters  Borrower additionally
     waives any and all notices of sale of participation interests, as well as
     all notices of any repurchase of such participation interests.  Borrower
     also agrees that the purchasers of any such participation interests will be
     considered as the absolute owners of such interests in the Loans and will
     have all the rights granted under the participation agreement or agreements
     governing the sale of such participation interests.  Borrower further
     waives all rights of offset of counterclaim that it may have now or later
     against Lender or against any purchaser of such a participation interest
     and unconditionally agrees that either Lender or such purchaser may enforce
     Borrower's obligation under the Loans irrespective of the failure or
     insolvency of any holder of any interest in the Loans.  Borrower further
     agrees that the purchaser of any such participation interest s may enforce
     its interests irrespective of any personal claims or defenses that Borrower
     may have against Lender.

     COSTS AND EXPENSES.  Borrower agrees to pay upon demand all of Lender's
     out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in
     connection with enforcement and collection of this Agreement or in
     connection with the Loans made pursuant to this Agreement.  Lender may pay
     someone else to help collect the Loans and to enforce this Agreement, and
     Borrower will pay that amount.  This includes, subject to any limits under
     applicable law, Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees and Lender's legal
     expenses, whether or not there is a lawsuit, including reasonable
     attorneys' fees for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or
     vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
     post-judgment collection services actually incurred.  Borrower also will
     pay any court costs, in addition to all other sums provided by law.

     NOTICES. All notices required to be given under this Agreement shall be
     given in writing and shall be effective when actually delivered or when
     deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier or deposited in
     the United States mail, first class, postage prepaid, addressed to the
     party to whom the notice is to be given at the address shown above.,  Any
     party may change its address for notices under this Agreement by giving
     formal written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of
     the notice is to change the party's address.  To the extent permitted by
     applicable law, if there is more than one Borrower, notice to any Borrower
     will constitute notice to all Borrowers.  For notice purposes, Borrower
     agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of Borrower's current
     address(es).

     SEVERABILITY.  If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of
     this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person or
     circumstance, such finding shall not render that provision invalid or
     unenforceable as to any other persons or circumstances.  If feasible, any
     such offending provision shall be deemed to be modified to be within the
     limits of enforceability or validity;  however, if the offending provision
     cannot be so modified, it shall be stricken and all other provisions of
     this Agreement in all other respects shall remain valid and enforceable.

                                   (Continued)

     SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES OF BORROWER.  To the extent the context of any
     provisions of this Agreement makes it appropriate, including without
     limitation any representation, warranty or covenant, the word "Borrower" as
     used herein shall include all subsidiaries and affiliates of Borrower.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing however, under no circumstances shall this
     Agreement be construed to require Lender to make any Loan or other
     financial accommodation to any subsidiary or affiliate of Borrower.

     SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  All covenants and agreements contained by or on
     behalf of Borrower shall bind its successors and assigns and shall inure to
     the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns.  Borrower shall not,
     however, have the right to assign its rights under this Agreement or any
     interest therein, without the prior written consent of Lender.

     SURVIVAL.  All warranties, representations, and covenants made by Borrower
     in this Agreement or in any certificate or other instrument delivered by
     Borrower to Lender under this Agreement shall be considered to have been
     relied upon by Lender and will survive the making of the Loan and delivery
     to Lender of the Related Documents, regardless of any investigation made by
     Lender or on Lender's behalf.

     TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE.  Time is of the essence in the performance of this
     Agreement.

     WAIVER.  Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this
     Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender.  No
     delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall
     operate as a waiver of such right or any other right.  A waiver by lender
     of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver
     of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision
     or any other provision of this Agreement.  No prior waiver by Lender, not
     any course of dealing between lender and Borrower, or between Lender and
     any Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's right or of any
     obligations of Borrower or of any Grantor as to any future transactions.
     Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Agreement, the
     granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute
     continuing consent in subsequent instances where such consent is required
     and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole
     discretion of Lender.

FINAL AGREEMENT.  Borrower understands that this Agreement and the related loan
documents are the final expression of the agreement between Lender and Borrower
and may not be contradicted by evidence of any alleged oral agreement.

BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES HAVING READ ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THIS LOAN AGREEMENT, AND
