              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                                   (Unaudited)

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
     have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
     principles for interim  financial  information and with the instructions to
     Form  10-Q  and Rule  10-01 of  Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not
     include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
     accounting principles for annual consolidated financial statements.  In the
     opinion  of  management,   adjustments   (consisting  of  normal  recurring
     accruals)  considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
     Operating  results for the three and six months  period ended June 30, 1997
     are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the
     year  ended  December  31,  1997.  For  further  information,  refer to the
     consolidated  financial  statements  and  notes  thereto  included  in  the
     Company's  Annual Report to  Shareholders  for the year ended  December 31,
     1996.

2.        PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

     The consolidated  financial statements include the accounts of Imatron Inc.
     and its subsidiary HeartScan Imaging,  Inc.  (HeartScan).  All intercompany
     accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

3.        NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In June 1997, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
     Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 130 "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income"
     (SFAS 130) which will be effective  for  financial  statements  for periods
     beginning after December 15, 1997, and establishes  standards for reporting
     and display of  comprehensive  income and its  components  in a full set of
     general purpose financial statements. Earlier application is permitted. The
     Company will make the required  reporting  of  comprehensive  income in its
     consolidated  financial  statements  for the first quarter ending March 31,
     1998.

     In June 1997, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
     Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 131  "Disclosures  about Segments of a
     Business  Enterprise"  (SFAS  131) which will be  effective  for  financial
     statements beginning after December 15, 1997, and establishes standards for
     disclosures  about  segments  of  an  enterprise.  Earlier  application  is
     encouraged.  In its consolidated financial statements for the year December
     31, 1998, the Company will make the required disclosures.

4.      CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

     Cash equivalents  consist of liquid  instruments  purchased with a maturity
     date of three months or less and money market  funds.  In  accordance  with
     Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 115,  "Accounting  for
     Certain  Investments  in Debt  and  Equity  Securities,"  the  Company  has
     classified   all   purchases   of   investments   as    available-for-sale.
     Available-for-sale securities are carried at amounts which approximate fair
     value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in a separate component of
     shareholders'  equity if material.  Fair values of investments are based on
     quoted market  prices.  Short-term  investments at June 30, 1997 consist of
     commercial  papers and government  securities with at least an A1/P1 credit
     rating.  These funds have  virtually no principal  risk and have a variable
     interest rate.

     Realized   gains  and  losses,   and   declines  in  value   judged  to  be
     other-than-temporary  are included in other income.  The cost of securities
     sold is based on the specific identification method.

5.       INVENTORIES
 
     Inventories consist of (in thousands of dollars):      
                                                 June 30,      December 31,

6.       LOSS PER SHARE

     Net loss per common share is computed using the weighted  average number of
     common  shares  outstanding.  Stock  options  and  warrants  have  not been
     included in the  computation as their effect would have been  antidilutive.
     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  basic earnings per
     share, the dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded. The impact of
     Statement 128 on calculations of basic and fully diluted earnings per share
     is not expected to be material for the quarters and six month periods ended
     June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996.

     Siemens has  asserted a claim  against the Company  regarding  the lapse of
     certain foreign  registrations of one of the patents assigned to Siemens by
     the Company in  connection  with the March 31, 1995  agreement  between the
     companies.  The technology  involved in the patent is not used presently in
     any of the Company's products. The Company substituted a patent, subject to
     existing license-back, currently used in its technology, for the previously
     transferred patent. Representatives of Siemens have agreed with the Company
     to these terms. 

     In  April  1997,  Imatron  and  Siemens  entered  into  a  service  support
     agreement,  whereby the Company  will provide  customer  services for C-150
     scanners sold by Siemens.  For an agreed-upon amount,  Imatron will provide
     all pre-installation  site planning,  installation and application support,
     as well as, warranty and  post-warranty  services,  as a  subcontractor  to
     Siemens. Revenues for warranty services are recognized over the life of the
     contracts while other service revenues are recognized upon completion of
     work.

8.       JOINT VENTURE

     As of June 30, 1997 Imatron's  interest in Imatron Japan,  Inc. ("the Joint
     Venture") is carried in the accompanying  condensed  consolidated financial
     statements  at no value.  The Company has no financial  commitments  to the
     Joint Venture and is prepared to abandon its interest.  The Company intends
     to carry this  investment  at no value until such time as the Joint Venture
     can demonstrate that it will be able to sustain profitable operations. Once
     profitable operations are sustained, the Company will account for the Joint
     Venture   investment   using  the  equity  method.   Summarized   financial
     information  for the  Joint  Venture  is not  included  in the notes to the
     condensed  consolidated  financial statements for the period ended or as of
     June 30,  1997,  as such  information  is not  considered  material  to the
     operations of Imatron Inc.

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

Results of Operations:

                  Three months ended June 30, 1997 versus 1996

Total  revenues  for the  second  quarter  ended  June 30,  1997 of  $10,659,000
increased $4,296,000 or 68% compared to 1996 revenues of $6,363,000. Net product
revenues increased to $7,931,000 in 1997 from $4,000,000 in 1996, which included
$1,774,000 under the sale-leaseback arrangements, primarily because of increase
in  scanner  shipments  from  three  in 1996 to five in 1997.  Service  revenues
increased  to  $940,000  in 1997 from  $821,000  in 1996 due to an  increase  in
scanners under service contracts. Development contract revenue is identical in
1996 due to the terms of the three year Memorandum of Understanding entered into
with Siemens in March 1995.  Clinic revenues  related to the HeartScan  Imaging,
Inc.  (HeartScan)  increased by 84% to $538,000 in 1997  compared to $292,000 in
1996 as a  result  of five  coronary  artery  disease  risk  assessment  centers
(clinics) operating in 1997 compared to three in 1996. 

Total cost of revenues as a percent of revenues  for the second  quarter of 1997
was lower at 72% as compared  with 102% in 1996.  Product  cost of revenues as a
percent of  product  revenues  decreased  to 59% in 1997 from 99% in 1996 due to
shipment of five scanners with higher  realized  gross margin  compared to three
shipments  in 1996.  Service  cost of revenues  as a percent of service  revenue
increased to 96% in 1997 from 94% in 1996 due to startup expenses related to the
establishment  of a service  center in Europe  (see Note 6 -  Transactions  with
Siemens Corporation).  Development contract revenue and cost of revenue is equal
due to the terms of the three year  Memorandum  of  Understanding  with Siemens.
Clinic  costs of revenues as a percent of clinic  revenues  decreased to 146% in
1997 as  compared  to 168% in 1996  primarily  due to an  increase  in  revenues
related to the establishment of additional Heartscan clinics.

Total operating expenses of $4,274,000  increased  $1,588,000 or 59% compared to
1996 expenses of $2,686,000.  R&D expenses of $1,204,000 increased $406,000 from
$798,000 in 1996 due to increases in headcount  and  materials  for new projects
being developed.  Selling expenses increased to $1,691,000 from $898,000 in 1996
primarily due to higher advertising  expenses incurred by HeartScan and expenses
related to studies  conducted  promoting the benefits of the Company's  product.
Administrative  expenses  increased  $389,000 to  $1,379,000  due  primarily  to
increases in HeartScan headcount and bad debt expenses.

                   Six months ended June 30, 1997 versus 1996

Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 of  $21,236,000  increased
$8,783,000  or 71%  compared to revenues of  $12,453,000 for the same period in 
1996. Net product revenues increased to $15,722,000 in 1997  from $7,791,000  in
1996, which included  $1,774,000 under the sale-leaseback  arrangements,  due to
ten  scanners  shipped  in  1997  compared  to five in  1996.  Service  revenues
increased 24% to $1,970,000 in 1997 due to an increase in scanners under service
contract.  Development contract revenue is identical in 1996 due to the terms of
the three year  Memorandum of  Understanding  entered into with Siemens in March
1995.  Clinic  revenues  related to the  HeartScan  Imaging,  Inc.  increased to
$1,044,000  in 1997 from  $574,000 in 1996 as a result of five  coronary  artery
disease risk assessment centers (clinics) operating in 1997 compared to three in
1996. 

Total cost of revenues as a percent of revenues for the first six months of 1997
was lower at 74% as  compared  with 97% in 1996.  Product  cost of revenues as a
percent of  product  revenues  decreased  to 64% in 1997 from 92% in 1996 due to
shipment of ten scanners  with higher  realized  gross  margin  compared to five
shipments  in 1996.  Service  cost of revenues  as a percent of service  revenue
decreased to 82% in 1997 from 93% in 1996 due to higher service contract revenue
partially offset by an increase in startup expenses related to the establishment
of  a  service  center  in  Europe  (see  Note  6 -  Transactions  with  Siemens
Corporation).  Development  contract revenue and cost of revenue is equal due to
the terms of the three year  Memorandum of  Understanding  with Siemens.  Clinic
costs of revenues as a percent of clinic  revenues  decreased to 168% in 1997 as
compared to 181% in 1996  primarily  due to an increase in  additional  revenues
related to the establishment of additional Heartscan clinics.

Total operating expenses of $7,670,000  increased  $2,350,000 or 44% compared to
1996  expenses of  $5,320,000.  R&D  expenses of  $2,126,000  in 1997  increased
$625,000 from $1,501,000 in 1996 due to increases in headcount and materials for
new projects.  Selling expenses  increased to $3,054,000 in 1997 from $1,981,000
in 1996 primarily due to higher  advertising  expenses incurred by HeartScan and
expenses  related to studies  conducted  promoting the benefits of the Company's
product.  Administrative expenses increased $652,000 to$2,490,000 in 1997 due to
increases in HeartScan headcount and bad debt expenses.

Other income increased $476,000 to $637,000 in 1997 due to higher yield in cash
investments.


Liquidity and Capital Resources:

At June 30, 1997, working capital decreased to $31,682,000  compared to December
31, 1996 working  capital of $33,042,000  primarily as a result of the operating
losses  sustained  by  HeartScan  amounting  to  $3,269,000.  The current  ratio
decreased to 4.1:1 at June 30, 1997 from 4.4:1 at December 31, 1996.

The  Company's  assets  decreased to  $52,375,000  compared to December 31, 1996
total assets of $53,192,000.  Net cash used in operating  activities  during the
first six months of 1997 was  $4,401,000  compared to  $6,650,000  in 1996.  The
decrease in cash used in operations were primarily  attributable to increases in
accounts  receivables,  as  revenues  grew 71% in 1997  over the same six  month
period in 1996.

Cash used in investing activities  increased  $20,606,000 to $10,297,000 in 1997
as  compared  to the  same  six  month  period  in 1996  due to an  increase  in
securities  held for sale  maturing  in three  months  and less.  Key  financing
activities  in the first six  months of 1996  included  proceeds  from a private
offering  whereby  Imatron sold 100,000  shares of HeartScan  Series A preferred
stock to unaffiliated  third parties with realized  proceeds of $14,798,000 (net
of offering  costs).  During the same period,  the Company  also sold  4,500,000
shares of its common stock and issued warrants to purchase common stock, netting
proceeds of  $11,348,000.  Additionally,  exercises of stock  options,  employee
stock  purchase  plan and warrants  decreased  to $735,000  during the first six
month period in 1997 as compared to $3,149,000 during the same period in 1996.

The Company's management believes that the cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments  existing at June 30, 1997 and the  estimated  proceeds from ongoing
sales of products and services in 1997 will provide the Company with  sufficient
cash for operating  activities  and capital  requirements  through  December 31,
1997. 

To satisfy  the  Company's  capital  and  operating  requirements  beyond  1997,
profitable operations,  additional public or private financing or the incurrence
of debt may be required.  If future  public or private  financing is required by
the Company,  holders of the Company's securities may experience dilution. There
can be no assurance that equity or debt sources, if required,  will be available
or, if available, will be on terms favorable to the Company or its shareholders.
The Company does not believe  that  inflation  has had a material  effect on its
revenues or results of operations.

This  Form  10Q  contains  forward-looking  statements  which  involve  risk and
uncertainties.  The company's actual results may differ  significantly  from the
results discussed in the forward-looking  statements as a result of certain risk
factors set forth in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1996.
