FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Thursday, August 21, 1997

PHOENIX,  Ariz.,  August 21:  OrthoLogic  Corp.  (NASDAQ:  OLGC) today  reported
changes in the company's senior management.

Dr. Allan M. Weinstein,  chairman and chief executive officer since founding the
company in 1987,  will  assume the title of  vice-chairman  and chief  executive
officer and, after a new president and chief  executive  officer is named,  will
focus his  activities  exclusively  on strategic  business  opportunities.  "I'm
confident  this change will ease the way to  recruiting a new  president/CEO  by
clearly demonstrating my intention to hand over the reins," said Dr. Weinstein.

In related  announcements,  John M.  Holliman,  III was elected  chairman of the
board,  and Dr.  Frank  Magee was  appointed  to the post of  acting  president.
Holliman,  a partner  with  Valley  Ventures,  is one of  OrthoLogic's  founding
institutional investors. Holliman said he is "actively engaged in the process of
recruiting  a new  president/CEO"  and termed the endeavor as "among the highest
priorities for the company." Dr. Magee, who formerly held the title of executive
vice president,  will address day-to-day operational issues of the company until
the new president/CEO is named. Dr. Magee joined OrthoLogic in 1989.

OrthoLogic  develops,   manufactures  and  markets  proprietary  technologically
advanced  orthopaedic devices designed to promote the healing of musculoskeletal
tissue. Founded in 1987, the company is headquartered in Phoenix.
