[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Significant  accounting policies of Primedex Health Systems, Inc. and affiliates
are set forth in the Company's  Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 1997 as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

During the six months ended April 30,  1998,  the Company  adopted  Statement of
Position ["SOP"] No. 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities." As a
result of the decision,  the Company reduced historical net organizational costs
and capitalized fees by approximately $780,000. The effect of this change was to
increase  the loss before net income for the six months  ended April 30, 1998 by
$.02 per share.

[2] Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  interim  consolidated  financial  statements are unaudited and
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles
and the  instructions  to Form  10-Q  and  Rule  10-01  of  Regulation  S-X and,
therefore,  do not include all  information  and footnotes  necessary for a fair
presentation  of financial  position,  results of  operations  and cash flows in
conformity with generally accepted accounting  principles for complete financial
statements;  however,  in the  opinion of the  management  of the  Company,  all
adjustments  consisting  of normal  recurring  adjustments  necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the
interim  periods  ended April 30,  1998 and 1997 have been made.  The results of
operations for any interim period are not necessarily  indicative of the results
for the full year. These interim  consolidated  financial  statements  should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
contained  in the  Registrant's  annual  report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended October 31, 1997.

[3] Goodwill

The  Company's  goodwill  as of  April  30,  1998 is  shown  net of  accumulated
amortization  of  approximately  $3,812,000.  Amortization  expense  for the six
months ended April 30, 1998 and 1997 was  approximately  $700,000 and  $750,000,
respectively. The 1998 decrease in amortization expense was primarily due to the
write-off of goodwill associated with the sales of DIS's Ultrasound Division and
four of its  hospital-based  MRI facilities to Diagnostic Health Services,  Inc.
["DHS"]  effective  March 1,  1997 and the sale of  Scripps  Chula  Vista to DHS
effective January 1, 1998.

During the six months ended April 30, 1998, the Company wrote-off  approximately
$778,000  of DIS  acquisition  goodwill  and  approximately  $43,000  of related
accumulated  amortization with the sale of Scripps Chula Vista. In addition, the
Company wrote-off  approximately  $92,000 of Woodward Park acquisition  goodwill
and approximately $4,000 of related accumulated amortization. At the time of the
acquisition,  unrealized liabilities [written off in January 1998] were recorded
creating the goodwill.

The  Company  amortizes  goodwill  over the lesser of 20 years or the  estimated
useful life of the assets.

[4] Due to/from Related Party

The Company has a $1,000,000  loan  receivable due from its President and C.E.O.
in February 1999  discounted at 8%. For the six months ended April 30, 1998, the

[4] Due to/from Related Party [Continued]

As of  October  31,  1997,  the  Company  advanced  $30,000 to an officer of the
Company,  at no  interest,  which will be repaid  within the 1998  fiscal  year.
During the six months ended April 30, 1998,  the Company  advanced an additional
$25,000 to the officer with the same terms.

As of October  31,  1997,  the  Company  loaned  another  officer of the Company
$25,000,  with interest at 6%.  During the six months ended April 30, 1998,  the
Company  loaned an additional  $180,000 to this officer.  In February  1998, the
officer  renegotiated  and terminated his contract with the Company and used his
net  severance  to repay  $50,000 of the prior loans made to him by the Company.
The  remaining  $155,000  of loans due to the  Company  are to be repaid in five
years with interest at 6.5%;  $30,000 of these loans were used to purchase stock
from the  Company  using his  available  options  and are  classified  as "Stock
Subscription  -  Related  Party"  in the  financial  statements.  As part of the
contract renegotiation, the individual was retained as a legal consultant to the
Company to be paid $50,000 per year for five years.

[5] Litigation

The  Company is a  defendant  in a class  action  pending  in the United  States
District  Court for the District of New Jersey  entitled "In re Hibbard  Brown &
Company  Securities  Litigation"  [No. 93 CV 1150].  The Company  entered into a
preliminary settlement with the plaintiff class in the lawsuit by the payment of
$240,000  in April 1996.  Although  the  settlement  between the Company and the
plaintiff  class was granted  preliminary  court  approval,  the  settlement  is
subject to final approval by the class and to final court approval which has not
yet been  obtained.  Management  expects  there will be no  additional  costs to
settle the case beyond the $240,000.  The lawsuit  continues with respect to the
other  defendants.  The Company remains convinced that it has not engaged in any
inappropriate conduct in this matter.

The Company is  currently a party to other  litigation,  none of which is deemed
material by nature.

[6] Acquisitions, Sales and Divestitures

In February 1998, the Company dissolved its partnership between La Habra Imaging
Group  II  and  Friendly  Hills  Healthcare  Network,  Inc.  ["Friendly  Hills"]

approximately  $270,000 of Friendly  Hills  accounts  receivable,  approximately
$365,000  in net  property,  approximately  $155,000  of  accrued  expenses  and
approximately  $435,000 in minority interest. The Company received approximately
$95,000  from  Friendly  Hills as part of the  final  dissolution.  The  Company
recognized a gain of  approximately  $48,000 on the dissolution and continues to
operate  the now  wholly-owned  La  Habra  center.  As part of the  dissolution,
Friendly Hills acquired the modular building utilized by the center. The Company
entered into a five-year  lease with Friendly Hills with an initial base rent of
$3,034 per month.

In March 1998,  effective January 1, 1998, the Company's DIS subsidiary sold its
share of Scripps  Chula Vista MRI L.P.  ["SCV"] to Diagnostic  Health  Services,
Inc.  ["DHS"] for 127,250 shares of DHS stock. As of the  transaction  date, the
shares were valued at $1,431,563 and recorded as "Marketable Securities Held for
Sale"  [see  Note 8].  Due to the  sale,  the  Company  wrote-off  approximately
$735,000 of net acquisition goodwill.

approximately $639,000.  Subsequent to the quarter's end, as of August 13, 1998,
the  Company   repurchased  an  additional  194,000  of  its  subordinated  bond
debentures for approximately  $113,000.  When the bonds are retired, the Company

approximately   $81,000   while   reducing   quarterly   interest   payments  to
approximately $518,000.

On December 4, 1997, a previous  employee of the Company  exercised  his options

who had existing  options for 200,000 shares of the Company's  common stock, was
granted options for an additional  100,000 shares as part of his contract buyout
and renegotiation. On January 20, 1998, the officer exercised all of his options
for 300,000  shares of the Company's  common stock for  approximately  $.183 per
share,  or $55,000.  The officer was loaned the entire  $55,000 of which $25,000
was repaid in  February  1998 with the  remainder  to be repaid in five years at
6.5%  interest.  In addition,  the Company  entered  into an agreement  with the
former  officer  whereby the Company  agreed to purchase  from him up to 600,000
shares of the Company's  common stock owned by him at a price of $.40 per share,
in minimum increments of 100,000 shares, upon his election anytime subsequent to

PRIMEDEX HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND AFFILIATES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Background

Primedex Health Systems, Inc. ["PHS"] was incorporated on October 21, 1985.

On November 1, 1990,  the Company  acquired a 51% interest in  Viromedics,  Inc.
["VMI"] for $700,000. On February 18, 1992, Future Medical Products ["FMP"], the
parent corporation of VMI, exercised its right to repurchase one-half of the VMI
stock from PHS at a price of  $700,000.  The Company owns  approximately  19% of
VMI's  outstanding  capital  stock as of April 30, 1998,  which is accounted for
using the cost method at $-0-.

On April 30, 1992,  the Company  entered into a purchase  agreement  with Radnet
Management,  Inc. and certain  related  companies  ["Radnet"] for  approximately
$66,000,000. The statement of operations and cash flows for the six months ended
April 30, 1998 and 1997 include the operations and cash transactions of Radnet.

In November of 1995, the Company formed Radnet Managed  Imaging  Services,  Inc.
["RMIS"]  which  acquired  most of the  assets of Future  Diagnostics,  Inc.  by
purchasing  100%  of  its  outstanding  stock  for  approximately  $3.2  million
consisting of notes and assumed  liabilities.  The  statement of operations  and
cash flows for the six months  ended April 30, 1997 reflect the  operations  and
cash transactions of FDI.  Effective  September 3, 1997, 100% of the outstanding
capital stock of FDI was sold to Preferred Health  Management,  Inc. ["PHM"] for
$13,500,000 in cash,  notes and assumed  liabilities.  The Company  continues to
operate RMIS which  provides  utilization  review  services.  The  statements of
operations  and cash  flows for the six  months  ended  April 30,  1998 and 1997
reflect the overhead costs and cash transactions of RMIS.

In March of 1996, the Company purchased  3,478,261 shares, or approximately 31%,
of Diagnostic  Imaging  Services,  Inc.  ["DIS"] for $4,000,000 with a five-year
warrant  to  acquire an  additional  1,521,739  shares of DIS stock at $1.60 per
share. The $4 million was borrowed by the Company from a primary lending source.
During the four-month period ended July 31, 1996, the investment  yielded a loss
to the Company of  $313,649.  Effective  August 1, 1996,  the  Company  issued a
five-year  promissory  note for  $3,272,046  and five-year  warrants to purchase
approximately 4,000,000 shares of PHS common stock at $.60 per share, to acquire
an additional  3,228,046  shares of DIS common stock.  The purchase made PHS the
primary shareholder in DIS with approximately 59% ownership.

In  subsequent  purchases  through  August 13,  1998,  the  Company  acquired an
additional  3,062,037  shares of DIS stock from  various  related and  unrelated
parties for  approximately  $3,682,000 in cash and notes payable  increasing its
ownership  in  DIS  to  approximately  85%  [excluding  treasury  shares].   The
statements of operations  and cash flows for the six months ended April 30, 1998
and 1997 reflect the operations and cash transactions with DIS.

Effective March 1, 1997, the Company sold the assets and related  liabilities of
four of DIS's  hospital-based  MRI  facilities  and its  ultrasound  division to
Diagnostic  Health  Services,  Inc.  ["DHS"] for  $15,972,720  in cash including
$2,000,000 in ten-year covenants  not-to-compete.  The covenants  not-to-compete
were split equally between PHS and DIS and are classified as "Deferred  Revenue"
on the Company's financial statements. The Company recognized a gain on the sale
of  approximately  $5,600,000  which  included the  write-off  of  approximately
$2,660,000 of net acquisition  goodwill. In addition, a discounted receivable of
approximately  $1,190,000 [utilizing a 11.75% interest rate] was recorded on the
Company's books for post-closing  payments of $500,000 each to be made by DHS to
DIS on the first,  second and third  anniversaries of the sale closing date. The
Company had an option to receive these  payments in the form of DHS common stock
valued at the mean average of the reported closing price of such common stock as
reported on the NASDAQ  National  Market for the five  consecutive  trading days
ending on the third day  immediately  prior to the  closing  date  ["the  Agreed
Value"] [See Note 8].

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------




Background [Continued]

As a result of a continuing  deteriorating  business  climate and other business
reasons at DIS's Santa  Monica  ["Parkside"]  facility,  on June 25,  1997,  the
Company decided to close  substantially all of its operations at the facility on
or about  August 29,  1997.  Due to this  decision,  the Company  recognized  an
impairment loss of  approximately  $4,550,000 [net of final $400,000 fiscal 1997
sale payment]  which included the write-off of  approximately  $1,530,000 of net
acquisition  goodwill.  In May 1997,  the Company  sold the  facility's  MRI for
$65,000 to an unrelated party; in August 1997, the Company's  remaining Parkside
assets were sold for  approximately  $400,000 to another  party who also assumed
the center's  building  lease.  The Company  still  operates a separate  entity,
Parkside   Radiology   Women's  Center  ["Parkside   Womens"],   which  provides
ultrasound,  mammography,  stereotactic  breast  biopsy  and  bone  densitometry
services.

Effective  January 1, 1997, the Company's DIS subsidiary opened it Scripps Chula
Vista MRI, L.P. ["SCV"] servicing patients in San Diego. The Company and Scripps
Health are equal partners with the Company serving as managing partner.

In March 1998,  effective January 1, 1998, the Company's DIS subsidiary sold its
share of SCV to DHS for 127,250 shares of DHS stock. As of the transaction date,
the shares were valued at $1,431,563 and recorded as "Marketable Securities Held
for Sale" [see Note 8]. Due to the sale,  the  Company  wrote-off  approximately
$735,000 of net acquisition goodwill.

Effective March 1, 1997, the Company acquired the assets and related liabilities
of Woodward Park Imaging Center ["WWP"] in Fresno,  California for approximately
$200,000  in notes  payable  and assumed  liabilities  resulting  in goodwill of
approximately  $90,000.  In January 1998, the goodwill was  written-off  due the
reversal  of an  unrealized  liability  [see  Note  3].  WWP is a full  service,
multi-modality  imaging center  providing MRI, CT,  mammography,  ultrasound and
general diagnostic radiology services.

During the year ended October 31, 1997,  the Company  acquired the assets of Las
Posas Medical Imaging for $35,000 in cash and relocated DIS's Camarillo facility
to its location. No goodwill was recorded in this transaction.

In February 1998, the Company dissolved its partnership between La Habra Imaging
Group  II  and  Friendly  Hills  Healthcare  Network,  Inc.  ["Friendly  Hills"]
effective  December  31,  1997.  Upon the  dissolution,  the  Company  wrote-off
approximately  $270,000 of Friendly  Hills  accounts  receivable,  approximately
$365,000  in net  property,  approximately  $155,000  of  accrued  expenses  and
approximately  $435,000  in minority  interest.  The  Company  received  cash of
approximately  $95,000 from Friendly Hills upon the dissolution and recognized a
gain  of  approximately  $48,000.  As part of the  dissolution,  Friendly  Hills
acquired the modular building utilized by the center. The Company entered into a
five-year building lease with Friendly Hills with an initial base rent of $3,034
per month.

In April 1997,  the Company  opened  Oxnard  Imaging,  a start-up  operation  in
Ventura County.

Forward-Looking Information

The  forward-looking  statements  herein are based on current  expectations that
involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are
based on assumptions that the Company will have adequate financial  resources to
fund the  development  and  operation  of its  business,  and  there  will be no
material adverse change in the Company's  operations or business.  The foregoing
assumptions  are  based  on  judgment  with  respect  to,  among  other  things,
information  available to the Company,  future economic,  competitive and market
conditions  and  future  business  decisions,  all of  which  are  difficult  or
impossible  to predict  accurately  and many of which are  beyond the  Company's
control.  Accordingly,  although  the  Company  believes  that  the  assumptions
underlying the  forward-looking  statements are reasonable,  any such assumption
could prove to be inaccurate  and therefore  there can be no assurance  that the
results contemplated in forward-looking  statements will be realized.  There are
number of other risks presented by the Company's  business and operations  which
could cause the  Company's  financial  performance  to vary  markedly from prior
results or results  contemplated by the forward-looking  statements.  Management
decisions,  including  budgeting,  are  subjective in many respects and periodic
revisions must be made to reflect actual  conditions and business  developments,
the impact of which may cause the  Company to alter its capital  investment  and
other  expenditures,  which may also adversely  affect the Company's  results of
operations.  In light of significant  uncertainties  inherent in forward-looking
information  included in this  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q,  the inclusion of
such information  should not be regarded as a  representation  by the Company or
any other person that the Company's objectives or plans will be achieved.

The following discussion relates to the continuing activities of Primedex Health
Systems, Inc.

Results of Operations

The discussion of the results of continuing  operations  includes  Radnet,  PHS,
RMIS and DIS for the six months  ended April 30,  1998.  The  discussion  of the
results of continuing operations includes Radnet, PHS, RMIS, FDI and DIS for the
six months ended April 30, 1997.  RMIS was  consolidated  with FDI during fiscal
1997.

During the six months ended April 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company had losses from
operations of approximately  $345,000 and $5,360,000,  respectively.  During the
six months ended April 30,  1997,  the Company  recognized  an  impairment  loss
related to the closure of Parkside of approximately $4,950,000.

During the six months  ended April 30, 1998 and 1997,  the Company  realized net
revenues of approximately $29,960,000 and $35,075,000, respectively.

During  the six  months  ended  April 30,  1998 and 1997,  Radnet  realized  net
revenues of approximately $24,489,000 and $22,173,000, respectively. The primary
reasons for the  increase in net revenue was due to the  addition of new centers
at Woodward  Park [March  1997],  Oxnard  Imaging  [March  1997] and  University
Imaging [August 1997], and the addition of equipment including,  but not limited
to,  an MRI at  Stockton  [March  1998]  and  Oxnard  [March  1998]  and a CT at
Vacaville [November 1997].

Results of Operations [Continued]


During the six months  ended April 30, 1998 and 1997,  DIS realized net revenues
of approximately  $5,324,000 and $9,211,000,  respectively.  The decrease in net
revenue was primarily  attributable to the sales of DIS's  ultrasound  division,
four  hospital-based  MRI  facilities  and Scripps  Chula Vista to DHS,  and the
closure of Parkside  and West L.A.  during  fiscal 1997 and 1998.  In  addition,
during  fiscal 1998,  DIS recorded a  contractual  adjustment  of  approximately
$225,000 on historical  accounts  receivable from its previously  closed or sold
sites. During the six months ended April 30, 1997, FDI generated net revenues of
approximately  $3,640,000;  FDI was sold on  November  3,  1997.  During the six
months  ended  April 30, 1998 and 1997,  PHS  generated  net billing  revenue of
approximately $147,000 and $51,000, respectively.  Effective August 1, 1998, DHS
terminated  its billing  service  contract  with PHS and moved the  operation in
house.

During  the six months  ended  April 30,  1998 and 1997,  the  Company  incurred
operating expenses of approximately  $30,305,000 and $40,440,000,  respectively.
The 1998 operating  expense  decrease is primarily  attributable to the sales of
DIS's  Ultrasound  Division,  MRI  sites  and SCV to DHS,  the sale of FDI,  the
closure of West L. A. and  Parkside and  recognition  of an  impairment  loss of
approximately $4,950,000 during the six months ended April 30, 1997.

For the six months ended April 30, 1998 and 1997,  Radnet's  operating  expenses
were approximately  $22,985,000 and $21,615,000,  respectively,  DIS's operating
expenses were approximately $6,115,000 and $14,745,000,  respectively, FDI's and
RMIS's   operating   expenses  were   approximately   $165,000  and  $3,040,000,
respectively,  and PHS's operating  expenses were  approximately  $1,040,000 for
both years.

During the six months  ended April 30, 1998 and 1997,  the  Company's  operating
expenses consisted of approximately  $12,870,000 and $13,010,000,  respectively,
for salaries and reading fees, approximately $-0- and $2,150,000,  respectively,
for  radiology  site  costs  related  to  FDI,   approximately   $2,615,000  and
$3,045,000,  respectively,  for building and  equipment  rentals,  approximately
$9,530,000  and  $11,520,000,   respectively,   in  general  and  administrative
expenditures,   approximately  $4,275,000  and  $4,545,000,   respectively,   in
depreciation  and   amortization,   approximately   $1,015,000  and  $1,220,000,
respectively, for provisions for bad debt, and approximately $-0- and $4,950,000
attributable to the recognition of an impairment loss, pursuant to FASB 121, for
the writedown of assets related to the closure of Parkside.

During  the six  months  ended  April 30,  1998 and 1997,  interest  income  was
approximately  $168,000 and  $230,000,  respectively.  Interest  income for 1998
consisted primarily of imputed interest income on notes receivable due from PHM,
DHS and related parties. Interest income for 1997 consisted primarily of imputed
interest income on related party note receivables.

During  the six months  ended  April 30,  1998 and 1997,  interest  expense  was
approximately  $4,540,000 and $5,020,000,  respectively.  The primary reason for
the  decrease  in  interest  expense  was due to the  sale of  DIS's  ultrasound
division,  four of its MRI  facilities  and SCV to DHS,  the sale of FDI and the
repurchase of bond debentures during the fiscal year.

During the six months  ended  April 30, 1998 and 1997,  the  Company  recognized
gains from the sales of subsidiaries or divisions of approximately  $340,000 and
$5,600,000,  respectively.  During  the six months  ended  April 30,  1998,  the
Company  realized a gain from the sale of SCV to DHS of  approximately  $252,000
and an additional gain from the sale of FDI to PHM [post-closing  adjustment] of
approximately  $88,000.  During the six months ended April 30, 1997, the Company
recognized  a gain from the sale of DIS's  ultrasound  division  and four of its
hospital-based MRI facilities to DHS of approximately $5,600,000.

organizational costs and capitalized fees in January 1998.

During the six months ended April 30, 1998, the Company  realized  extraordinary
gains from  early  extinguishment  of debt of  approximately  $960,000  from the
repurchase and retirement of  subordinated  bond  debentures,  the settlement of
limited  partner notes  payable at a discount and the  write-off of  acquisition
accrued expenses that never materialized.

During the six months ended April 30, 1998 and 1997,  the Company had net losses
of approximately $4,420,000 and $4,675,000, respectively

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash increased for the six months ended April 30, 1998 and 1997 by approximately
$203,000 and $506,000, respectively.

Cash generated from investing activities for the six months ended April 30, 1998
and 1997 was approximately  $26,000 and $14,712,000,  respectively.  For the six
months ended April 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company acquired  additional DIS stock
for approximately $674,000 and $67,000, respectively,  acquired additional units

30, 1998, the Company collected  approximately  $2,060,000 from notes receivable
due from PHM,  received  proceeds  from the  dissolution  of a  partnership  for
approximately $95,000 and loaned $125,000 to related parties.

Cash generated from financing activities for the six months ended April 30, 1998
was approximately $2,808,000. Cash utilized for financing activities for the six
months ended April 30, 1997 was approximately $12,800,000. During the six months
ended  April 30, 1998 and 1997,  the Company  increased  its cash  overdraft  by
approximately $1,790,000 and $1,090,000,  respectively,  made principal payments
on capital leases and notes payable of approximately $5,188,000 and $13,974,000,
respectively,  received  proceeds from borrowing  under existing lines of credit
and  refinancing   arrangements  of   approximately   $7,470,000  and  $525,000,
respectively,  and repurchased  subordinated  bond debentures for  approximately
$1,372,000 and $260,000,  respectively. In addition, during the six months ended
April 30, 1998, the Company  received $75,000 from its SCV joint venture partner
and received proceeds of approximately $31,000 for the issuance of common stock.
During  the  six  months   ended  April  30,  1997,   the  Company   distributed
approximately  $178,000  to its joint  venture  partners  and made  payments  to
related parties of approximately $5,000.

At April 30, 1998, the Company had a working  capital  deficit of $18,010,741 as
compared to a working  capital  deficit of  $12,027,033  at October 31,  1997, a
decrease of $5,983,708.  The decrease from year-end is primarily attributable to
increased  borrowings  from the  Company's  existing  lines of  credit  and cash
overdrafts  which  are  classified  as  current  liabilities  on  the  Company's
financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources [Continued]

The Company's  working  capital needs are currently  provided under two lines of
credit.  Under one agreement,  due December 31, 1998, the Company may borrow the
lesser of 75% to 80% of eligible accounts  receivable,  $10,000,000 or the prior
120-days' cash collections.  Borrowings under this line are repayable  together,
with  interest,  at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) the bank's  prime
rate plus 3%, or (b) 10%. The lender holds a first lien on substantially  all of
Radnet's  [Beverly  Radiology's]  assets to secure  repayment under this line of
credit. The President and C.E.O. of PHS has personally  guaranteed $3,000,000 of
the loans. In addition,  the credit line is  collateralized by a $5,000,000 life
insurance  policy  on the  President  and  C.E.O.  of PHS.  At April  30,  1998,
approximately $9,108,000 was outstanding under this line.

Under a second line of credit,  renewed on a  month-to-month  basis, the Company
may borrow the lesser of 75% of the eligible accounts receivable,  $5,000,000 or
the prior 120-days' cash  collections.  Borrowings under this line are repayable
together  with  interest at an annual rate of the bank's prime rate plus 3-1/2%.
The  President and C.E.O.  of PHS has  personally  guaranteed  $1,000,000 of the
loans.  The credit  line is  collateralized  by  approximately  80% of the Tower
division's  [Radnet  Sub,  Inc.]  accounts  receivable.  As of April  30,  1998,
approximately $4,497,000 was outstanding under this line.

The Company's future payments for debt and equipment under capital lease for the
next five  years,  assuming  lines of credit  are paid in the first year and not
renewed,   will  be   approximately   $32,225,000,   $15,970,000,   $15,680,000,
$11,935,000 and $10,295,000,  respectively.  Interest expense [excluding line of
credit and bond  debenture  interest]  for the next five years,  included in the
above  payments,  will  be  approximately  $5,390,000,  $3,880,000,  $2,670,000,
$1,500,000   and   $700,000,   respectively.   In  addition,   the  Company  has
non-cancelable  operating  leases for use of its facilities and certain  medical
equipment  which will average  approximately  $2,950,000 in annual payments over
the next five years.

The Company has  approximately  $105,000 on its books for accrued  restructuring
costs associated with the buyout and renegotiation of employment contracts which
will be fully utilized by fiscal year-end 1998.

At three of the  Company's  Tower  locations  [120 East,  444 San  Vicente and 1
West/Womens],  the Company's leases expire at various times beginning in January
1999. Due to this, the Company has entered into a new lease agreement for nearby
space in Beverly Hills ["Wilshire"] and will consolidate the assets and business
of these three Tower  locations to the new space during fiscal 1999. The Company
cannot predict  whether the move will  negatively  impact the volume of business
previously  obtained  from these  three  centers,  but the new site will  reduce
respective average building rental disbursements by approximately $1,015,000 per
year [including note payment disbursements assumed upon the acquisition of Tower
in October  1994].  For the six months  ended April 30,  1998,  the combined net
revenue for these three sites was approximately $6,190,000. One of the Company's
primary  lendors  has  agreed  to lend  the  Company  up to  $6,000,000  for new
equipment and leasehold improvements for the site.
