         (a)      The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this
                  form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or
                  expense;

[x]      (b)      The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition
                  report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K or Form N-SAR,
                  or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifteenth
                  calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject

Part III-Narrative


State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q,
N-SAR or the transition report or portion thereof could not be filed within the
prescribed time period.

         On November 10, 1997, a merger between  the Company and
Advanced Mammography Systems, Inc. ("AMS") was consummated pursuant to which AMS
became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of the merger, the
registrant will alter certain financial statements, footnotes and other
disclosures required in the Form 10-K for all periods presented. The Part I
information in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997 could
not be filed within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or
expense due to the amount of time required to prepare these financial statements
and disclosures in this Form 10-K.

of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or section 30 of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no,
identify report(s).

                                                            [x] Yes  [ ] No

          (3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of
operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be
reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or
portion thereof?

                                                              [ ] Yes  [x] No

narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why
