          NOTES TO INTERIM UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED 
          FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

          COMPUMED, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES


          NOTE A--BASIS OF PREPARATION

          The balance sheet at September 30, 1996 has been derived from the
          Company's year-end audited financial statements.

          The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial
          statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
          accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
          and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
          Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
          information and footnotes required by generally accepted
          accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the
          opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting  of normal
          recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
          have been included.  Operating results for the period ended June
          30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
          be expected for the year ending September 30, 1997.  For further
          information, refer to the consolidated financial statements for
          the year ended September 30, 1996 and the notes thereto included
          in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.


          NOTE B--PER SHARE DATA

          Net loss per share is calculated using the net loss less
          preferred stock dividends, divided by the weighted average common
          shares outstanding.  Shares from the assumed conversion of
          outstanding warrants, options and effect of the conversion of the
          Class A Preferred Stock and Class B Preferred Stock are omitted
          from the computations because the effect would be antidilutive. 


          NOTE C--COMMITMENTS AND CONTENGENCIES

          In December 1996, the Company entered into a technology
          development agreement with Varian Imaging Products (Varian).  The
          Company will receive Varian's amorphous silicon sensor x-ray
          imaging system for testing and for potential integration into its
          second-generation OsteoSystem.  Varian will also grant exclusive
          marketing rights to the Company for the use of its amorphous
          silicon technology in the assessment of appendicular bone mineral
          density and arthritis detection for a period of three years,
          providing certain sales targets are met.  The Company agreed to
          make an initial payment to Varian of $65,000 for the imaging

                                      7

          NOTE C--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)

          system and will purchase silicon panel assemblies at prices
          determined in the agreement.  Varian will supply technical and
          engineering assistance for incorporating its silicon detectors
          into the Company's products.

          On August 5, 1996 the Company entered into a Memorandum of
          Understanding to confirm the material terms of an agreement in
          principle to settle the securities class action and derivative
          litigation filed in the United States District Court for the
          Central District of California (the "Court") on behalf of persons
          who purchased Common Stock during various time periods spanning
          from August 11, 1995 to October 17, 1995, inclusive and
          derivatively on behalf of the Company.  The Company's outside
          counsel is working with plaintiffs' counsel to finalize the
          Stipulation of Settlement.  The Company expects the settlement to
          be submitted to the Court by the first quarter of 1998.  The
          consummation of the proposed settlement is subject to significant
          conditions, including negotiation of definitive settlement
          agreements and obtaining court approval after notice to the class
          members has been given.  During the nine months ended June 30,
          1997 there have been no additional events relating to the
          agreement in principle to settle the securities class action.  It
          is anticipated that the consummation of the proposed settlement
          will be completed by the mid 1998.

          NOTE D - IMPACT OF RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

          In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
          Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share, which is required to be
          adopted on December 31, 1997.  At that time, the Company will be
          required to change the method currently used to compute earnings
          per share and to restate all prior periods.  Under the new
          requirements for calculating primary earnings per share, the
          dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded.  The impact of
          Statement 128 on the calculation of primary earnings per share
          for these quarters is not expected to be material.

          Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                   CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


          This Form 10QSB contains forward-looking statements as defined by
          the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Forward -
          looking statements include statements concerning plans,
          objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance and
          underlying assumptions and other statements which are other than

          uncertainties and risks including, but not limited to, product
          and service demand and acceptance, changes in technology, the
          availability of appropriate acquisition candidates and/or

          competition and pricing, capacity and supply constraints or
          difficulties, government regulation and other risks defined in
          this document.  All such forward-looking statements, whether
          written or oral, and whether made by or on behalf of the Company
          are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements and any

          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          ---------------------

          Revenues from operations for the three months ended June 30, 1997
          (the "Third Quarter 1997") were $479,000, a 22% reduction from
          the same period in 1996.  Decreased cardiac event monitoring from
          the Company's TeleCor operations provided revenues of $17,000 for
          the Third Quarter 1997 as compared to $102,000 during the prior
          year. Beginning in August 1997, the Company no longer offers the
          event monitoring services (TeleCor) and will focus operations and
          marketing efforts on the core transtelephonic ECG business.   
          The elimination of TeleCor operations will reduce net monthly
          losses by approximately $30,000, based on recent operating
          results.  Revenues from transtelephonic ECG services and
          supplies, exclusive of TeleCor revenues, were $429,000 for the
          Third Quarter 1997, which is a decrease of $74,000 from the prior
          year, due to customer attrition, however such revenues increased
          $42,000 from the prior quarter (ended March 31, 1997) as a result
          of current marketing efforts.  The Company's new ECG product, the
          System 507, was introduced during the quarter and placements of
          this system should provide new monthly revenues.  Royalty income
          was $33,000 for the Third Quarter 1997 from OsteoGram(R) operations
          being managed by a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc. as compared to
          $20,000 during the same period in 1996.  Investment income
          decreased to $20,000 during the Third Quarter 1997 from $45,000
          during the 1996 period due to liquidations of marketable
          securities. 

          Costs of services during the Third Quarter 1997 were
          approximately the same as the prior year.  General and

                                      9
     <PAGE>

          administrative expenses decreased during the Third Quarter 1997
          by $58,000, or 15% as compared to the same period in 1996,
          primarily due to decreases in legal costs.  Selling costs
          decreased by 42% from the prior year to $75,000 due to reductions
          in commissionable sales and the resultant decrease in expense. 
          Research and development costs increased by $86,000 during the
          Second Quarter 1997 to $179,000 , as compared to the prior year,
          due to increased salaries and direct costs relating to the
          Company's development of the second generation OsteoSystem. 

          Net loss for the Third Quarter 1997 was $493,000 or $0.06/share
          compared to a loss of 2,913,000 or $.18/share for the same period
          in 1996.  Exclusive of the provision for litigation settlement of
          $2,537,000, the loss for the Third Quarter 1997 increased by
          $117,000 from the prior year.  The increased loss over the prior
          year is directly attributable to decreased revenues from ECG
          operations and to increased research and development
          expenditures, which could not be fully offset by cost reductions.

          Revenues from operations for the nine months ended June 30, 1997
          (the "Nine Month Period") were $1,491,000, a decrease of $250,000
          or 14% from the same period in 1996.  This reduction was
          primarily attributed to decreases in ECG service revenues,
          through customer attrition, and the related supplies sales.
          Rental property income from the IRSCO Development subsidiary was
          eliminated in the 1997 period, as compared to $99,000 during the
          1996 period, due to the foreclosure on certain property in April
          1996.

          General and administrative expenses decreased during the Nine
          Month Period by $56,000, or 4% as compared to the same period in
          1996, primarily due to the elimination of the IRSCO Development
          operations described above.  The elimination of the IRSCO
          operations, and the related costs of those operations, were also
          the primary causes for the reductions in interest expense
          ($79,000 reduction) and depreciation expense ($20,000 reduction)
          during the Nine Month Period as compared to the same period in
          1996.

          Net loss for the Nine Month Period was $1,653,000 or $0.18/share
          compared to a loss of $4,122,000 or $0.49/share for the same
          period in 1996.  The decrease in the loss for the Nine Month
          Period reflected the elimination of the ongoing losses from IRSCO
          rental operations and the 1996 loss included the provision for
          litigation settlement of $2,778,000.   Decreases in investment
          income of $25,000 during the Nine Month Period, as compared to
          the 1996 period, contributed to the losses from operations.

          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
          ---------------------------------

          As of June 30, 1997 the Company had $877,000 of working capital,

                                      10
     <PAGE>

          a reduction of $1,435,000 from September 30, 1996.  This
          reduction in working capital is a direct result of losses from
          operations including product development costs, adjusted for
          depreciation expense.  

          The Company's capital resource commitments at June 30, 1997
          consist primarily of sponsored research agreements and costs
          associated with the development of its second generation
          OsteoSystem.  During the third quarter of fiscal 1997, total
          research and development expenses were $179,000.  Expenditures
          during future periods are expected to meet or exceed this level. 
          Sponsored research payments with the University of Massachusetts
          Medical Center are made at the rate of $12,500 per quarter for
          the second year commencing May 1, 1996. The Varian agreement (see
          NOTE C above) requires payments in the total amount of $65,000
          during the current fiscal year.  Components for prototype units
          will be purchased during the next few quarters including digital
          cameras, x-ray sources and cabinets.  Additionally, other sub-
          contractors are being utilized for this project under consulting
          arrangements.

          The University of Georgia  sponsored Detoxahol research agreement
          has been suspended and the Company is only supporting patent-
          related costs at this time.  Due to the long-term nature of this
          project, the Company is seeking a strategic partner to
          participate in future development.   

          The Company intends to pursue additional research and/or sub-
          contractor agreements relating to its development projects. 
          Additionally, the Company is actively seeking partners and
          acquisition candidates of businesses which are complementary to
          its own.  Such investments would be financed by the Company's
          working capital, through issuance of Company securities or a
          combination thereof.

          Due to the development nature of the Company's business
          activities, the Company is anticipating losses from operations
          during the next year.   Based upon the current business plan, the
          Company will require additional funding for research &
          development, acquisitions, and losses from operations during the
          next year.  The level of capital requirements, based upon current
          expectations is approximately $1.0 - $1.5 million.  The Company
          believes that these funds will become available through an
          issuance of securities.  There can be no assurance that the
          Company will be able to successfully negotiate or obtain
          additional financing through the public issuance or private
          placement of its securities or that any such financing will be on
          terms favorable or acceptable to the Company and the issuance of
          such securities may result in substantial dilution of outstanding
          securities.

          The Company has extended the term of warrants to purchase 647,170
          shares of Common Stock for $3.75 per share.  The termination date
          was extended from August 2, 1997 to August 2, 1999.
