This Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D ("Amendment No. 4") amends the Schedule 13D (the "Initial Statement") filed by Linda B. Stern ("Linda Stern" or "Mrs. Stern") and the Estate of Howard S. Stern (the "H. Stern Estate" and, with Linda Stern, the "Reporting Persons") on January 23, 2006, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on May 23, 2006 ("Amendment No. 1"), Amendment No. 2 thereto filed on October 3, 2007 ("Amendment No. 2"), and Amendment No. 3 thereto filed on November 2, 2007 ("Amendment No. 3" and, collectively with the Initial Statement, Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, and this Amendment No. 4, the "Statement") relating to the beneficial ownership of shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the "E-Z-EM Common Stock"), of E-Z-EM, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“E-Z-EM”). Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Statement and, unless amended hereby, all information previously filed remains in effect. As set forth below, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own, or have shared power to vote or direct the vote of, any shares of E-Z-EM Common Stock and accordingly this Amendment No. 4 constitutes the final amendment to the Initial Statement and an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

("Bracco"), Eagle Acquisition Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Bracco (“Merger Sub”), and, for limited purposes, Bracco Imaging S.p.A., an Italian corporation (“Bracco Imaging”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, as a result of the merger contemplated thereby, all of the shares of E-Z-EM Common Stock, including the shares previously owned by the Reporting Persons, were converted into the right to receive a cash payment of $21.00 per share.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is hereby amended as follows:

(a) As a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, neither of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns any shares of E-Z-EM Common Stock.

(b) As a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, neither of the Reporting Persons has sole or shared power to vote, direct the vote, dispose or direct the disposition of any shares of E-Z-EM Common Stock.

(c) Except as set forth in the Statement, including Item 4 of this Amendment No. 4, neither of the Reporting Persons has effected any transactions in the E-Z-EM Common Stock during the past 60 days.

(d) Not applicable.
