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

                  The class of equity securities to which this Statement relates
is the common stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of Compumed,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),  which has its principal executive
offices at 1230 Rosecrans Avenue, Manhattan Beach, California 90266.


Item 2.           Identity and Background.
                  -----------------------

                  This  Statement is being filed in  connection  with the Common
Stock  beneficially held by Spinnaker  Technology Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership  ("Spinnaker")  and Lawrence A.  Bowman.  Spinnaker  and Mr.  Bowman
conduct  their  principal  business and maintain  their  principal  office at 22
Gatehouse Road, Stamford, Connecticut 06902.

                  The sole  general  partner of  Spinnaker  is  Soundview  Asset
Management,  Inc.,  a Delaware  corporation  ("Soundview"),  which  conducts its
principal  business and  maintains its  principal  office at 22 Gatehouse  Road,
Stamford,  Connecticut  06902.  All business of Spinnaker is conducted under the
complete and exclusive control of Soundview. Mr. Bowman is the portfolio manager
of  Spinnaker  and the  President  and a member  of the  Board of  Directors  of
Soundview.  Mr. Bowman also owns 20% of Soundview. Mr. Bowman is a U.S. citizen.
(Spinnaker,  Soundview and Mr. Bowman are sometimes  hereinafter  referred to as
the "Filers").

                  Spinnaker  was formed in 1994 for the  principal  business  of
providing  an  investment  vehicle  for  institutional  and other  sophisticated
investors to acquire equity  interests in companies with  significant  potential
for long-term growth in value in the technology  industry.  Soundview was formed
in 1994 for the principal business of serving as the general partner and manager
of various investment funds and portfolios.  Mr. Bowman, as portfolio manager of
Spinnaker, makes all of the investment decisions for Spinnaker.


                  The name,  business address,  present principal  occupation or
employment of each  executive  officer and director of Soundview is set forth in
Schedule  I  hereto,  which is  incorporated  herein by  reference.  Each of the
individuals listed in Schedule I hereto are U.S. citizens.

                  During the past five years,  none of the Filers nor any of the
executive  officers  or  directors  of the  Filers (i) has been  convicted  in a
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar  misdemeanors),  or
(ii) was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative

                               Page 5 of 14 Pages

body of competent  jurisdiction  and, as a result of such proceeding,  was or is
subject to a judgment,  decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or
prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws
or finding any violation with respect to such laws.


Item 3.           Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
                  --------------------------------------------------

                  The funds used by  Spinnaker  to pay for its  interest  in the
Common Stock,  in the amount of $2,337,500 for 550,000 shares of Common Stock at
a  purchase   price  of  $4.25  per  share,   were  obtained  from  the  capital
contributions made by its partners.  The funds used by Mr. Bowman to pay for his
interest in the Common  Stock,  in the amount of $191,250  for 45,000  shares of
Common  Stock at a  purchase  price of $4.25 per share,  were from his  personal
funds.


Item 4.           Purpose of Transaction.
                  ----------------------

                  The  Filers  have  acquired  the Common  Stock for  investment
purposes.  None of the Filers has any  intention of  acquiring  control over the
Company;  however,  if Spinnaker,  Soundview or Mr. Bowman  believe that further
investment in the Company is attractive,  whether because of the market price of
the Common  Stock or  otherwise,  they may acquire  additional  shares of Common
Stock.  Similarly,  depending  upon  market  and other  factors,  the Filers may
determine to dispose of the Common Stock.  Except as disclosed above, the Filers
do not have any  plans or  proposals  of the type set  forth in  Paragraphs  (a)
through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.


Item 5.           Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
                  ------------------------------------

                  (a) and (b) The  number of shares of Common  Stock  issued and
outstanding and the percentage  calculations  resulting therefrom in this Item 5
are based on information received from the Company. According to the Company, as
of August 9, 1995,  there were  6,886,556  shares1  of Common  Stock  issued and
outstanding.  After  giving  effect to the issuance and sale by way of a private
placement  under Section 4(2) and  Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933 of
1,236,000 shares of Common Stock on August 11, 1995, including those

--------------
1.  According to the  Company,  this amount  does not  include an  aggregate  of

convertible preferred stock.

shares  purchased by Spinnaker and Mr.  Bowman,  there are 8,122,556  issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock.

                  Spinnaker  beneficially  owns 550,000  shares of Common Stock,
representing  approximately  6.7% of the Common  Stock  issued and  outstanding.
Spinnaker has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to all Common Stock
owned by it, which power is exercised by its General Partner, Soundview.

                  Soundview may be deemed to beneficially  own all the shares of
Common Stock owned by Spinnaker by virtue of its status as sole general  partner
of Spinnaker.  Such deemed  beneficial  ownership  would total  550,000  shares,
representing  approximately  6.7% of the Common  Stock  issued and  outstanding.
Soundview may be deemed in its capacity as general partner of Spinnaker to share
the voting power and the power to direct the disposition of the shares of Common
Stock owned by  Spinnaker.  Soundview  disclaims  beneficial  ownership  of such
shares.

                  Mr.  Bowman  beneficially  owns 45,000 shares of Common Stock,
representing approximately 0.6% of the Common Stock issued and outstanding.  Mr.
Bowman has sole voting and  dispositive  power with  respect to all Common Stock
owned by him. In addition,  Mr. Bowman may be deemed to beneficially own all the
shares of Common  Stock owned by  Spinnaker by virtue of his status as President
of  Soundview,  the sole general  partner of  Spinnaker.  Such actual and deemed
beneficial  ownership by Mr.  Bowman would total  595,000  shares,  representing
approximately 7.3% of the Common Stock issued and outstanding. Mr. Bowman may be
deemed in his  capacity as  President of Soundview to share the voting power and
the power to direct  the  disposition  of the  shares of Common  Stock  owned by
Spinnaker.  Mr.  Bowman  disclaims  beneficial  ownership of the shares owned by
Spinnaker.

                  (c) Except as set forth above, none of the Filers has effected
any transactions in shares of Common Stock during the past 60 days.

                  (d) To the best knowledge of the Filers,  no person other than

Item 6.           Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or
                  ------------------------------------------
                  Relationships With Respect to Securities of the
                  -----------------------------------------------
                  Issuer.
                  ------

                  Pursuant to the Stock Purchase  Agreement,  dated as of August
9, 1995  (the  "Agreement")  among the  Company  and the  purchasers,  including
Spinnaker and Mr. Bowman,  named on the Schedule of Purchasers  attached thereto
(the "Purchasers"), the Purchasers were granted registration rights with respect
to the Common Stock.  Under the terms of the Agreement,  the Company is required
to prepare and file a registration  statement  under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act") covering the sale of Common Stock held by such
Purchasers,  and use its best  efforts to cause such  registration  statement to
become effective,  subject to certain conditions. In addition, if the Company at
any time proposes to register any of its securities  under the  Securities  Act,
(with certain  exceptions),  Spinnaker is entitled to require the Company to use
its best efforts to register for sale all or a designated  portion of the Common
Stock held by Spinnaker.  Finally,  if at any time within 180 days from the date
of the  Agreement,  the  Company  proposes  to effect the  issuance to any other
person  of any  shares  of  Common  Stock  or any  warrants,  options  or  other
securities convertible into, exercisable for or containing rights to acquire any
shares of Common Stock at a purchase, conversion,  exercise or acquisition price
equal to or less than $4.25 per share of Common  Stock (as may be  adjusted  for
any stock  splits,  stock  dividends  or any  similar  events),  the  Company is
required to first offer such  securities  to the  Purchasers  so as to allow the
Purchasers to maintain their respective percentage interests in the Common Stock
outstanding  prior  to  such  issuance.  Any  such  securities  acquired  by the
Purchasers  shall have the benefit of the  registration  rights described above.
See Exhibit B.
