THE COMPANY
General
Imaging Diagnostic Systems, Inc.(the"Company") is a developmental stage
company. Since its inception (December 10, 1993), the Company has been engaged
in the research and development of its cancer detection technology and
developing, for commercial application its Computed Tomography Laser Mammography
(CTLMTM)device.
The CTLM is a device for detecting breast cancer through the skin in a
non-invasive and objective procedure. The CTLM employs a high-speed femto-second
pulsed titanium sapphire laser and proprietary scanning geometry and
reconstruction algorithms to detect and analyze masses in the breast for indicia
of malignancy or benignancy. The combination and incorporation of the foregoing
components into a device provide for enhanced diagnostic capabilities which the
company believes are superior to standard mammography diagnostic tools such as
ultra-sound and mammography. Based upon the known optical properties of benign
and malignant tissues (whether and to what extent light is impeded as it passes
through the tissue and the measurement of the impedance), the CTLM device is
designed to provide both the physician and patient with immediate, on-site,
objective interpretation and determination of further clinical work-up.
Accordingly, the Company believes that the CTLM, will improve early diagnosis,
reduce diagnostic uncertainty and decrease the number of biopsies performed on
benign lesions. In addition, the CTLMTM device does not expose the patient to
ionizing radiation or the breast to painful compression. Which the Company
believes are the contributing factors that contribute to a portion of the
patient population not obtaining a conventional mammogram.
<PAGE>
During the first year of operations, the Company researched the
interaction between high speed, rapid pulsed (Ti:Sapphire) laser technology and
various detection technologies associated with standard computed tomographic
("CT") schemes. Using this research the Company developed the first prototype of
the CTLMTM able to create images of a breast. The Company refined various
software and hardware configurations and components of the prototype based on
these first images, and filed a patent in June 1995. During this period of time
there were further advances in laser technology effecting the size and stability
of the laser component. The Company capitalized upon these advances by
purchasing a laser package manufactured by Spectra-Physics, Inc. and
incorporating it into the CTLMTM. On December 12, 1995, the Company had a
preliminary meeting with the Food and Drug Administration to discuss the
approach the Company would need to take to obtain marketing clearance for its
CTLMTM device. The Company was advised that it would need to submit for approval
a pre-market approval application ("PMA") in order to obtain marketing clearance
for the device. Further, the Company also needed to submit an investigational
device exemption ("IDE") application to the FDA in order to commence human
clinical trials of the device. The Company submitted its IDE application on
January 8, 1996, and it was approved February 9, 1996. During calendar year
1996, among otherdevelopments, the Company further refined the detection scheme
and laser power configuration in order to obtain substantially better image
quality. In order to incorporate the changes into the CTLMTM the Company was
required to submit an amendment to its IDE application. In November, 1996 the
Company installed its first CTLMTM device at the Strax Breast Diagnostic Center
which was subsequestly removed.
On June 12, 1997, the Company was advised by patent counsel that the
patent filed June 5, 1995, "Diagnostic Tomographic Laser Imaging Apparatus" was
granted with 7 independent and 16 subordinate claims.
The competition for developing a commercial device utilizing computed
tomography techniques and laser technology is difficult to ascertain given the
proprietary nature of the technology. There are a significant number of academic
institutions involved in various areas of research involving "optical medical
imaging" which is a shorthand description of the technology the Company's CTLMTM
device utilizes. A brief list of the most prestigious of these institutions
includes the University of Pennsylvania, The City College of New York, and
University College London. Two of these institutions have granted licenses on
certain patented technologies to two companies: University of Pennsylvania -
Non-Invasive Technologies; City College of New York - MediScience, Inc.
The market in which the Company intends to participate is highly
competitive. Many companies may succeed in developing products that are more
effective or less costly than the Company's products or such companies may be
successful in manufacturing and marketing their products than the Company.
Physicians using imaging equipment such as x-ray mammography equipment,
ultrasound or high frequency ultrasound systems, Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(MRI) systems, and thermography, diaphonography and transilluminational devices
may be reluctant to the CTLMTM. Currently, mammography is the most popular
choice for the detection of breast cancer. The Company's ability to sell the
CTLMTM device to medical facilities will, in part, be dependent on the Company's
ability to demonstrate the clinical utility of the CTLMTM device as an adjunct
to mammography and physical examination as well as the CTLMTM's advantages over
other available diagnostic tests.
<PAGE>
To date, due to the necessity of complying with all applicable United
States government regulations, the Company has not completed the FDA required
clinical testing, obtained FDA approval or begun to market or sell the CTLMTM
and therefore has not generated revenues. The Company has obtained its working
capital soley from the sale of equity securities.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
Imaging Diagnostic Systems, Inc. (the "Company") is a developmental
stage company which, since inception, has been engaged in research and
development of its Computed Tomography Laser Mammography ("CTLM(TM)"). The
CTLM(TM) is a breast-imaging device for the detection of cancer, utilizes laser
technology and proprietary computer algorithms to produce three dimensional
cross section slice images of the breast. Due to the fact that the Company is in
the last stages of the development of its cancer detection technology and its
CTLM(TM), it has not yet engaged in any marketing or distribution of it products
and therefore has had no revenue from its operations.
The Company has incurred net losses since inception through September
30, 1997 of approximately $18,828,021. The Company anticipates that loss from
operations will continue for at least the next year, primarily due to an
anticipated increase in marketing and manufacturing expenses associated with the
commercialization of the CTLMtm and other research and development activities.
There can be no assurances that the CTLMtm will achieve market acceptance or
that sufficient revenues will be generated from sales of the CTLMtm to allow the
Company to operate profitably.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
General and administrative expenses during the three months ended
September 30, 1997, were $329,403 representing an increase of $245,402 for the
corresponding period for 1996. The increase during the three month period ending
September 30, 1997, was primarily due to an expansion of the general operations
of the Company associated with hiring additional employees and relocating the
Company's operations to a new facility.
Compensation and related benefits during the three months ended
September 30, 1997, was $515,851 representing an increase of $202,981 for the
corresponding period for 1996. This increase was primarily due to an increase in
compensation expense as a result of the hiring of an additional 12 employees.
<PAGE>
BALANCE SHEET DATA
------------------
The Company's combined cash and cash equivalents totaled $2,014,387 as
of September 30, 1997. This is an increase of $1,527,664 from $486,723 for the
year ended June 30, 1997. On September 30, 1997, Imaging Diagnostic Systems,
Inc. finalized a private placement transaction resulting in $2,100,000 in equity
financing. See Item 5, Other Information.
The Company does not expect to generate a positive internal cash flow
for at least the next twelve (12) months due to the expected increase in
spending for research and development and the expected costs of commercializing
its initial product, the CTLM(TM) device.
Property and Equipment was valued at $3,272,018 as of September 30,
1997, this is a decrease of $48,961 from $3,320,979 for the year ended June 30,
1997. This decrease is due primarily to the depreciation of property and
equipment
Prototype Equipment was valued as of September 30, 1997, at $1,348,456.
This represents an increase of $131,871 from $1,216,585 for the year ended June
30, 1997. This increase is due primarily to an increase in developmental
activities leading to the commercialization of the CTLM(TM) device.
Legal Proceedings.
None.
Changes in Securities.
Effective September 30, 1997, the Board of Directors amended the
Articles of Incorporation of the Company in order to designate a class of shares
as Series C Convertible Preferred. The Series C Preferred is non-voting, can be
converted into common stock of the Company and has rights and preferences that
materially limit or qualify the rights of the holders of registered common
stock, including a liquidation preference of $10,000 per share
NASDAQ Listing
On March 24, 1996, the Company filed its application with NASDAQ to be
listed on the Small Cap Market. The Company's request for listing was
subsequently denied after a hearing before the Listing Qualifications Panel (the
"Panel"). The denial was based upon the fact that one of the Company's outside
shareholders (the "Shareholder"), who had no influence over the Company, had a
questionable background and owned a 5% interest in the Company.
<PAGE>
As a result, the Company appealed the denial decision to the NASDAQ
Listing and Hearing Review Committee (the "Committee") which on February 5,
1997, reversed the decision of the Panel and stated in part the following:
"Accordingly, we recommend that the Panel's decision denying initial
inclusion be reversed and the case be remanded to the Staff with instructions to
implement the Company's proposal..."
The Company in fact, did implement its proposal and on March 12th,
provided NASDAQ with copies of all things necessary to satisfy any concerns that
the Panel had regarding the Shareholder. Prior to the time NASDAQ acted on the
proposal, Barrons published an inaccurate article stating that a NASDAQ
spokesman indicated that the listing would be denied. At all times up until the
date of this article the Company's stock traded at $3.00 and above. The article
had a predictable negative impact on the Company's stock and the price dropped
below $3.00, where it has stayed ever since the Barrons article, despite a
retraction from Barrons. Based upon this decline the NASDAQ staff has refused to
approve the Company for listing on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market.
The Company has engaged a new law firm and General Counsel to deal
directly with NASDAQ and rectify this problem. An oral hearing before the
Committee has been set for January 22, 1998 in Washington D.C.
Patents
On November 13, 1997, the Company received an Issue Notification from the
United States Department of Commerce Patent and Trademark Office for the
Company's CTLM(TM). The Patent will issue on December 2, 1997 under Patent
Number 5692311. The Company has twelve additional patents pending with regard to
Optical Tomography.
Private Placement
On October 6, 1997, Imaging Diagnostic Systems, Inc. (the "Company")
finalized the private placement to foreign investors of 210 shares of its Series
C Convertible Preferred Stock ("the "Preferred Shares") at a purchase price of
$10,000 per share and Warrants to purchase up to 105,000 shares of the Company's
common stock at an exercise price of $1.63 per share. The offering was conducted
pursuant to Regulation S as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Regulation S Sale");
The Preferred Shares are convertible, at any time, commencing 45 days from the
date of issuance and for a period of three years thereafter, in whole or in
part, without the payment of any additional consideration. The number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, no par value, of the Company to
be issued upon conversion will be determined by dividing (i) the sum of $10,000
by (ii) the Conversion Price (determined as hereinafter provided) in effect at
the time of conversion. The "Conversion Price" is equal to seventy five percent
(75%) of the Average Closing Price of the Corporation's Common Stock for the
five-day trading period ending on the day prior to the date of conversion
provided, however, in no event will the Conversion Price be greater than $1.222
per share.
<PAGE>
Pursuant to the Regulation S Sale documents, the Company was also
required to escrow an aggregate of 3,435,583 shares of its common stock (200% of
the number of shares the Purchasers would have received if the Preferred Shares
were exercised on the closing date of the Regulation S Sale).
The shares underlying the Preferred Shares and Warrants are entitle to
demand registration rights under certain conditions. In connection with the
Regulation S Sale, the Company paid an unaffiliated Investment Banker an
aggregate of $220,500 for placement and legal fees.
Net proceeds to the Company of $1,879,500 will be used for working
capital and the continuous research, development and testing of the Company's
Computed Tomography Laser Mammography (CTLM (TM)) device.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX EFFECTS
A person who receives shares of the Company in exchange for services
rendered will recognize taxable income on the date of the reciept of the shares
based on the fair market value of the Common Stock.
RESTRICTIONS UNDER SECURITIES LAW
The sale of any shares of Common Stock must be made in compliance with
federal and state securities laws. Officers, directors and 10% or greater
shareholders of the Company, as well as certain other persons or parties whom
may be deemed "affiliates" of the Company under the Federal Securities Laws,
should be aware that shares acquired by affiliates are subject to certain resale
limitation imposed by Rule 144. Officers, directors and 10% or greater
shareholders are also subject to the "short swing" profit rule under Section
16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act
generally provides that if any officer, director or 10% and greater shareholder
sold any Common Stock of the Company acquired pursuant to the exercise of a
stock option, he would generally be required to pay any "profits" resulting from
the sale of the stock and receipt of the stock option. Section 16(b) exempts all
warrant exercises from being treated as purchases and, instead, treats a warrant
grant as a purchase of an underlying security, which grant/purchase may be
matched with the sale of the underlying security within six months of the date
of grant.

INDEMNIFICATION
Article XII of the Company's By-Laws provides as follows:
1. So long as permitted by law, no director of the corporation
shall be personally liable to the corporation or its shareholders for
damages for breach of any duty owed by such person to the corporation
or its shareholders; provided, however, that, to the extent required by
applicable law, this Article shall not relieve any person from
liability for any breach of duty based upon an act or omission (i) in
breach of such person's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
shareholders, (ii) not in good faith or involving a knowing violation
of law or (iii) resulting in receipt by such person of an improper
personal benefit. No amendment to or repeal of this Article and no
amendment, repeal or termination of effectiveness of any law
authorizing this Article shall apply to or effect adversely any right
or protection of any director for or with respect to any acts or
omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment, repeal or
termination of effectiveness.
2. So long as permitted by law, no officer of the corporation
shall be personally liable to the corporation or its shareholders for
damages for breach of any duty owed by such person to the corporation
or its shareholders; provided, however, that, to the extent required by
applicable law, this Article shall not relieve any person from
liability for any breach of duty based upon an act or omission (i) in
breach of such person's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
shareholders, (ii) not in good faith or involving a knowing violation
of law or (iii) resulting in receipt by such person of an improper
personal benefit. No amendment to or repeal of this Article and no
amendment, repeal or termination of effectiveness of any law
authorizing this Article shall apply to or effect adversely any right
or protection of any director for or with respect to any acts or
omissions of such officer occurring prior to such amendment, repeal or
termination of effectiveness.
<PAGE>
3. To the extent that a Director, Officer, or other corporate
agent of this corporation has been successful on the merits or
otherwise in defense of any civil or criminal action, suit, or
proceeding referred to in sections (a) and (b), above, or in defense of
any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against
any expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection therewith.
4. Expenses incurred by a Director, Officer, or other
corporate agent in connection with a civil or criminal action, suit, or
proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final
disposition of such action suit, or proceeding as authorized by the
board of directors upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the corporate agent to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be
determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Company, the Company has been advised that, in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection
with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the
opinion of its legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question
whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issues.

ITEM 6 - INDEMNIFICATION
---------------
Article XII of the Company's By-Laws provides as follows:
1. So long as permitted by law, no director of the corporation shall be
personally liable to the corporation or its shareholders for damages for breach
of any duty owed by such person to the corporation or its shareholders;
provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law, this Article
shall not relieve any person from liability for any breach of duty based upon an
act or omission (i) in breach of such person's duty of loyalty to the
corporation or its shareholders, (ii) not in good faith or involving a knowing
violation of law or (iii) resulting in receipt by such person of an improper
personal benefit. No amendment to or repeal of this Article and no amendment,
repeal or termination of effectiveness of any law authorizing this Article shall
apply to or effect adversely any right or protection of any director for or with
respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such
amendment, repeal or termination of effectiveness.
2. So long as permitted by law, no officer of the corporation shall be
personally liable to the corporation or its shareholders for damages for breach
of any duty owed by such person to the corporation or its shareholders;
provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law, this Article
shall not relieve any person from liability for any breach of duty based upon an
act or omission (i) in breach of such person's duty of loyalty to the
corporation or its shareholders, (ii) not in good faith or involving a knowing
violation of law or (iii) resulting in receipt by such person of an improper
personal benefit. No amendment to or repeal of this Article and no amendment,
repeal or termination of effectiveness of any law authorizing this Article shall
apply to or effect adversely any right or protection of any director for or with
respect to any acts or omissions of such officer occurring prior to such
amendment, repeal or termination of effectiveness.
3. To the extent that a Director, Officer, or other corporate agent of
this corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of
any civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding referred to in sections (a)
and (b), above, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall
be indemnified against any expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.
4. Expenses incurred by a Director, Officer, or other corporate agent
in connection with a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding may be paid
by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action suit, or
proceeding as authorized by the board of directors upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of the corporate agent to repay such amount if it
shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified.
<PAGE>
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the Company, the Company has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the
opinion of its legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issues.

ITEM 9 - UNDERTAKINGS
------------
(1) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(a) To file, during any period in which offerings or sales are
being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include
any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such
information in the Registration Statement;
(b) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under
the Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
Registration Statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof; and,
(c) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(2) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and,
where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference
in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than payment by the Registration of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8/Consultant Public Relations
Agreement
Gentleman:
This opinion is submitted pursuant to applicable rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the registration by Imaging
Diagnostic Systems, Inc. (the "Company") of an aggregate of 250,000 shares of
Common Stock, no par value (the "Common Stock") pursuant to the Consultant
Public Relations Agreement (the "Agreement").
In my capacity as general counsel to the Company, I have examined the
original, certified, conformed, or other copies of the Plan, the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation, By-Laws and corporate minutes provided to me by
the Company. In all such examinations, I have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures on original documents, and the conformity to originals or certified
documents of all copies submitted to us as conformed, photostat or other copies.
In passing upon certain corporate records and documents of the Company, we have
necessarily assumed the correctness and completeness of the statements made or
included therein by the Company, and we express no opinion thereon.
Based upon and in reliance of the foregoing, I am of the opinion that
the Common Stock, when issued in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
I hereby consent to the use of this opinion in the Registration
Statement on Form S-8 to be filed with the Commission.
