NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Vital Images, Inc. ("Vital
Images" or the "Company") 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 complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments considered necessary, including items of a normal
recurring nature, for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1998. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1997.


(2) SPIN-OFF OF VITAL IMAGES:

On May 12, 1997, Bio-Vascular, Inc. ("Bio-Vascular"), the former parent company
of Vital Images, distributed all of the shares of Vital Images to the
shareholders of Bio-Vascular (the "Distribution"), and on that date Vital Images
began operating as an independent public company. All Bio-Vascular shareholders
of record as of May 5, 1997 received one share of Vital Images common stock for
each two shares of Bio-Vascular stock held on that date, and cash in lieu of
fractional shares.


(3) REVENUE RECOGNITION:

Effective January 1, 1998 the Company adopted Statement of Position 97-2,
Software Revenue Recognition ("SOP 97-2"), which provides guidance on applying
generally accepted accounting principles in recognizing revenue on software
transactions and supersedes Statement of Position 91-1, Software Revenue
Recognition. The adoption of SOP 97-2 did not materially impact the Company's
revenue recognition practices, financial position or results of operations for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and would not have materially impacted the
revenue recognition practices, financial position or results of operations for
the six months ended June 30, 1997.

The Company's accounts receivable are generally concentrated with a small base
of customers. As of June 30, 1998, six customers accounted for 85% of accounts
receivable, while as of December 31, 1997, six customers accounted for 73% of
accounts receivable.

Export revenue amounted to 2% and 23% of total revenue for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Substantially all of the Company's export
revenue is negotiated, invoiced and paid in U.S. dollars. Gross export revenue
by geographic area is summarized as follows:

(5) NET LOSS PER SHARE:

For the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, net loss per share is computed
using the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Common
share equivalents are not included in the net loss per share calculations, since
they are anti-dilutive. Warrants and options to purchase common stock, 1,359,013
outstanding as of June 30, 1998, could potentially dilute basic earnings per
share in future periods if the Company generates net income.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, for periods prior to the
Distribution, the weighted average common shares outstanding used in the net
loss per share calculation is one-half of the weighted average of Bio-Vascular
common shares outstanding based on the distribution of one share of the
Company's common stock for each two shares of Bio-Vascular's common stock
pursuant to the Distribution and is computed using the weighted average common
shares outstanding during the period. For periods after the Distribution, net
loss per share is computed using the weighted average common shares outstanding
during the period. Common share equivalents are not included in the net loss per
share calculation, since they are anti-dilutive.

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

OVERVIEW

On May 12, 1997 (the "Distribution Date"), Bio-Vascular, the former parent
company of Vital Images, distributed all of the shares of Vital Images to the
shareholders of Bio-Vascular (the "Distribution"), and on that date Vital Images
began operating as an independent public company. All Bio-Vascular shareholders
of record as of May 5, 1997 received one share of Vital Images common stock for
each two shares of Bio-Vascular stock held on that date, and cash in lieu of
fractional shares.

In anticipation of the Distribution, Bio-Vascular assigned to Vital Images,
$10,000,000 in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, effective
November 1, 1996. On the Distribution Date, Bio-Vascular contributed to Vital
Images an additional $1,845,000 in cash equivalents in order to restore Vital
Images' cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance to $10,000,000.

On July 17, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a resolution
changing the Company's fiscal year end from October 31 to December 31 of each
year. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains unaudited financial statements
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 and the comparable periods of
the prior calendar year.


COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 1997

Revenue was $986,000 compared to $120,000, a 719% increase. This increase was
primarily the result of hardware and software revenue of $604,000 related to
shipments of Vitrea, the Company's flagship medical visualization product
released in October of 1997. An increase in royalties received from the
Company's license agreement with Paradigm Geophysical Corporation (formerly
CogniSeis Development, Inc.) also contributed to the increase in revenues. It is
expected that revenue will continue to increase in future quarters due to
increased sales of Vitrea software and related hardware. However, actual results
could vary materially from the foregoing forward-looking statement as a result
of lower than expected demand for the Vitrea product or the timing of future
releases of Vitrea software.

The gross margin percentage increased from 61% to 71%, primarily due to $18,000
in additional costs related to a customer site in 1997. Without these additional
costs the gross margin percentage would have been 76% in 1997. The decrease in
gross margin percentage from 76% as adjusted in 1997 to 71% is primarily a
result of hardware revenue related to the sales of Vitrea software increasing as
a proportion of the Company's product mix. The Company receives only a nominal
discount in purchasing the third party hardware and the Company's gross margin
on the resale of this hardware approximates its discount. The Company
anticipates that as hardware revenue related to the sale of Vitrea software
continues as a significant proportion of the Company's product mix, the overall
gross margin percentage will approximate the results of this quarter. This
forward-looking statement will be influenced primarily by vendor discounts on
the third party hardware and on the Company's product mix.

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

Sales and marketing expenses increased to $700,000 from $556,000, a 26%
increase. The increase was primarily due to increased compensation costs,
including the addition of a Director of Sales in March 1998, increased costs due
to increases in the Company's customer support infrastructure, as well as travel
expenses related to the marketing and promotion of the Vitrea product. The
increased costs were partially offset by a decrease in spending related to
catalogs and brochures printed in 1997. The Company expects sales and marketing
costs to increase in future periods as a result of the cost of additional sales
and customer support personnel.

Research and development expenses decreased 41% to $369,000 from $628,000. The
decrease was primarily due to reimbursement of $131,000 of engineering costs
pursuant to the development contract with Advanced Technologies Laboratories,
Inc. ("ATL"), and decreases in compensation, travel and clinical research
expenses. The Company anticipates that research and development expenses will
increase in future periods as future releases of Vitrea software are developed
and the reimbursement of engineering costs by ATL decreases.

General and administrative expenses increased from $310,000 to $475,000, a 53%
increase. The increase was primarily due to the incremental costs associated
with being an independent public company, including professional fees and
shareholder reporting, and increases in the Company's administrative
infrastructure. In addition, compensation costs increased as a result of
increased staffing. The Company believes that general and administrative costs
will increase in future periods primarily due to increased compensation expense
for employees hired in 1997 that will be present for the entire year.

The increased revenue and reimbursement by ATL offset by increasing expenses
attributable to the continuing development of the Company's management team and
infrastructure and the development and promotion of the Vitrea product, resulted
in an operating loss of $844,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998,
compared with an operating loss of $1,420,000 for the three months ended June
30, 1997.

Interest income was $70,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared
with $118,000 for the comparable period in 1997. The decrease in interest income
during the three months ended June 30, 1998 was due to a lower balance of cash,
cash equivalents and marketable securities as a result of the use of cash to
fund the Company's operations.

The income tax provisions for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997
consist solely of certain state minimum fees. A valuation allowance has been
established to completely reserve for the deferred tax assets of the Company.

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 WITH THE SIX MONTHS 
ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

Revenue was $1,752,000 compared to $276,000, a 533% increase. This increase was
primarily the result of hardware and software revenue of $1,092,000 related to
shipments of Vitrea, the Company's flagship medical visualization product
released in October of 1997. An increase in royalties received from the
Company's license agreement with Paradigm Geophysical Corporation (formerly
CogniSeis Development, Inc.) also contributed to the increase in revenues. It is
expected that revenue will continue to increase in future quarters due to
increased sales of Vitrea software and related hardware. However, actual results
could vary materially from the foregoing forward-looking statement as a result
of lower than expected demand for the Vitrea product or the timing of future
releases of Vitrea software.

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

The gross margin percentage decreased from 75% to 71%, primarily as a result of
hardware revenue related to Vitrea software sales increasing as a proportion of
the Company's product mix. The Company receives only a nominal discount in
purchasing the third party hardware and the Company's gross margin on the resale
of this hardware approximates its discount. The Company anticipates that as
hardware revenue related to the sale of Vitrea software continues as a
significant proportion of the Company's product mix, the overall gross margin
percentage will approximate the results of this quarter. This forward-looking
statement will be influenced primarily by vendor discounts on the third party
hardware and on the Company's product mix.

Sales and marketing expenses increased to $1,340,000 from $946,000, a 42%
increase. The increase was primarily due to increased compensation costs,
including the addition of a Director of Sales in March 1998 and a full six
months of compensation expense for the Vice President of Marketing and Sales
hired in February 1997, increased costs due to increases in the Company's
customer support infrastructure, as well as travel expenses related to the
marketing and promotion of the Vitrea product. The Company expects sales and
marketing costs to increase in future periods as a result of the cost of
additional sales and customer support personnel.

Research and development expenses decreased 15% to $898,000 from $1,051,000. The
decrease was primarily due to reimbursement of $157,000 of engineering costs
pursuant to the development contract with ATL, and decreases in travel and
clinical research expenses. The Company anticipates that research and
development expenses will increase in future periods as future releases of
Vitrea software are developed and the reimbursement of engineering costs by ATL
decreases.

General and administrative expenses increased from $617,000 to $1,075,000, a 74%
increase. The increase was primarily due to a charge of $180,000 in connection
with the resignation of the Company's former Chief Executive Officer and the
incremental costs associated with being an independent public company, including
professional fees and shareholder reporting, and increases in the Company's
administrative infrastructure. In addition, compensation costs increased as a
result of increased staffing and a full six months of compensation expense for
the Chief Financial Officer hired in February 1997. The Company believes that
general and administrative costs will increase in future periods primarily due
to increased compensation expense for employees hired in 1997 that will be
present for the entire year.

The increased revenues and reimbursement by ATL offset by increasing expenses
attributable to the continuing development of the Company's management team and
infrastructure and the development and promotion of the Vitrea product, resulted
in an operating loss of $2,066,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998,
compared with an operating loss of $2,407,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1997.

Interest income was $149,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared
with $232,000 for the comparable period in 1997. The decrease in interest income
during the six months ended June 30, 1998 was due to a lower balance of cash,
cash equivalents and marketable securities as a result of the use of cash to
fund the Company's operations.

The income tax provisions for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997
consist solely of certain state minimum fees. A valuation allowance has been
established to completely reserve for the deferred tax assets of the Company.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In anticipation of the Distribution, Bio-Vascular assigned to Vital Images,
$10,000,000 in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, effective
November 1, 1996. On the Distribution Date, Bio-Vascular contributed to Vital
Images an additional $1,845,000 in cash equivalents in order to restore Vital
Images' cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance to $10,000,000.

If the Company's operations progress as anticipated, of which there can be no
assurance, management believes that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities should be sufficient to satisfy its cash requirements at least
through the second quarter of 1999. The timing of the Company's future capital
requirements, however, will depend on a number of factors, including the ability
and willingness of physicians to use three-dimensional visualization software in
clinical diagnosis, surgical planning patient screening and other diagnosis and
treatment protocols; the ability of the Company to build an effective sales and
distribution channel; the impact of competition in the medical visualization
business; and the ability to enhance existing products and develop new products
on a timely basis. If the Company's operations do not progress as anticipated,
additional capital will be required sooner. There can be no assurance that any
required additional capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all, and
the failure to obtain any such required capital would have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business.

For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, cash used in operating
activities was $1,539,000 and $1,774,000, respectively. The Company invested
$200,000 and $329,000 in property and equipment during the six months ended June
30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, primarily for the acquisition of computer
equipment. The Company used $4,757,000 and $2,934,000 to purchase marketable
securities and had $7,000,000 and $972,000 of marketable securities mature
during the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Company
also received $76,000 from the purchase of the Company's common stock under
Employee Stock Purchase Plan and Stock Option Plans during the six months ended
June 30, 1998.

The Company has no material commitments at this time other than facility leases
and expected employment contracts, but will be using cash in the near term as it
continues to develop the market for its products and its channels of
distribution.


FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS

Substantially all of the Company's foreign transactions are negotiated, invoiced
and paid in U.S. dollars.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

Many computer systems experience problems handling dates beyond the year 1999.
Therefore, some computer hardware and software will need to be modified prior to
the year 2000 in order to remain functional. The Company is assessing the
internal readiness of its computer systems and the compatibility of its products
sold to customers for handling the year 2000. In addition, the Company is
assessing the readiness of third-parties (e.g., customers and suppliers) which
interact with the Company's systems. The Company plans to devote the necessary
resources to resolve all significant year 2000 issues in a timely manner. Based
on management's current assessment, it does not believe that the cost of such
actions will have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or
financial condition, in part because the Company's principal product has only
recently been introduced and was developed to be year 2000 functional. However,
there can be no assurance that year 2000 issues will not arise which relate to
the Company's suppliers or the integration of the Company's products into the
systems of its customers.


NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD

Effective January 1, 1998 the Company adopted Statement of Position 97-2,
Software Revenue Recognition ("SOP 97-2"), which provides guidance on applying
generally accepted accounting principles in recognizing revenue on software
transactions and supersedes Statement of Position 91-1, Software Revenue
Recognition. The adoption of SOP 97-2 did not materially impact the Company's
revenue recognition practices, financial position or results of operations for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and would not have materially impacted the
revenue recognition practices, financial position or results of operations for
the six months ended June 30, 1997.
