requires the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share for 
companies with potentially dilutive securities, such as options.  All 
historical earnings per share information has been restated as required by 
SFAS 128.

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common 
shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding for the period.  
Diluted earnings per share reflects the weighted-average common shares 
outstanding plus the potential effect of dilutive securities which are 
convertible to common shares such as options, warrants, convertible debt and 
preferred stock.  


The following is a reconciliation between the components of the basic and 
diluted net income per share calculations for the periods presented below (in 
thousands):

Note 3 - Comprehensive Income

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company has adopted the pro forma disclosure 
requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, 
"Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130").  SFAS 130 establishes standards 
for the reporting of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of 
general-purpose financial statements.  Comprehensive income is comprised of 
net income and other comprehensive earnings such as unrealized gains or losses 
on available-for-sale short-term investments.  The Company's unrealized gains 
and losses on available-for-sale short-term investments have been 
insignificant for all periods presented.

Note 5 - Revenue Recognition

In March 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Position No. 98-4 ("SOP 98-4") 
"Deferral of the Effective Date of a Provision of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue 
Recognition".  SOP 98-4 defers, for one year, the application of certain 
passages in SOP 97-2 which limit what is considered vendor-specific objective 
evidence ("VSOE") necessary to recognize revenue for software licenses on 
multiple-element arrangements when undelivered elements exist.  Additional 
guidance is expected to be provided prior to adoption of the deferred 
provision of SOP 97-2.  The Company will determine the impact, if any, the 
further guidance will have on current revenue recognition practices when 
issued.  Adoption of the remaining provisions of SOP 97-2 did not have a 
material impact on revenue recognition during the first half of 1998.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
Results of Operations

Except for the historical information contained herein, the following 
discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and 
uncertainties.  The Company's actual results could differ materially from 
those discussed here.  Factors that could cause or contribute to such 
differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this section, 
as well as those discussed in the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K 
and other documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission.

Overview

Lumisys develops, manufactures and markets a broad product line of laser-based 
very high resolution medical film digitizers, charge-coupled device-based 
("CCD")film scanners and video digitizer products necessary for converting 
analog medical images into diagnostic quality digital formats.

Results of Operations

Total sales for the three months ended June 30, 1998 decreased 24.4% to $5.4 
million from $7.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997.  Total 
sales for the six months ended June 30, 1998 decreased 20.7% to $11.9 million 
from $15.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease was 
primarily due to lower software sales in 1998 as a result of the Company's 
software product strategy change.  In November 1997, the Company decided to 
sell software products to OEM and VAR customers only, whereas previously the 
Company sold software to direct end-user customers as well.  OEM and VAR sales 
have a longer sales cycle compared to the sales cycle for direct end-user 
customers and therefore sales decreased after the change in strategy.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 1998 decreased 24.8% to $2.9 
million from $3.9 million for the corresponding period of 1997. Gross margin 
decreased in the three month period ended June 30, 1998 to 54.2% from 54.5% in 
the same period of 1997.  Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 1998 
decreased 22.1% to $6.5 million from $8.4 million for the six months ended 
June 30, 1997.  Gross margin decreased in the six month period to 54.9% from 
55.9%, primarily due to lower software sales for the first two quarters of 
1998 compared to the first two quarters of 1997.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased 45.3% in the three months ended June 
30, 1998 to $678,000 from $1,240,000 in 1997.  As a percentage of sales, these 
expenses decreased to 12.5% in 1998 from 17.3% in 1997.  Sales and marketing 
expenses decreased 33.0% to $1,592,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 
from $2,376,000 for the same period of 1997. As a percentage of sales, these 
expenses decreased to 13.4% in the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 15.9% 
in 1997.  The decrease for the three and six month periods was primarily due 
to the decrease in the Company's sales and marketing personnel as a result of 
the strategic change in software product sales.  

Research and development expenses decreased 9.9% in the three months ended 
June 30, 1998 to $1,583,000 from $1,757,000 in the same quarter of 1997. The 
decrease is primarily due to lower software development costs in 1998 compared 
to 1997.  As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses 
increased to 29.2% in the three months ended June 30, 1998 from 24.5% in the 
same quarter of 1997.  For the six months ended June 30, 1998, research and 
development expenses decreased 4.2% to $3,184,000 from $3,324,000 for the six 
months ended June 30, 1997.  As a percentage of sales, research and 
development expenses increased to 26.8% in the six months ended June 30, 1998 
from 22.2% in 1997 due to lower sales in 1998 compared to 1997. 

General and administrative expenses decreased 16.5% in the three months ended 
June 30, 1998 to $835,000 from $1,000,000 in the same quarter of 1997.  The 
decrease is primarily due to the decrease in the Company's accounting and 
administration personnel resulting from combining the digitizer and software 
groups' accounting functions.  As a percentage of sales, these expenses 
increased to 15.4% from 13.9%.  General and administrative expenses decreased 
6.3% in the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $1,785,000 from $1,904,000 in 
the same period of 1997.  As a percentage of sales, general and administrative 
expenses increased to 15.0% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 12.7% 
in the six month period ended June 30, 1997.  The increase as a percentage of 
sales is due to lower sales in 1998 compared to 1997.

The Company recognized a provision for income taxes of $40,000 in the three 
months ended June 30, 1998 compared to a provision for income taxes of 
$327,000 in the same period of 1997.  The Company recognized a provision for 
income taxes of $188,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to a 
provision for income taxes of $830,000 in the same period of 1997.  The 
Company has provided a partial valuation allowance against the balance of the 
deferred tax assets remaining as of June 30, 1998.  The Company expects to 
continue to be subject to an effective tax rate of approximately 39% for the 
remainder of 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company financed its cash used in operating activities of $1.6 million 
primarily from the proceeds of the sale of short-term investments which  
contributed $1.5 million in the first half of 1998.  The use of cash in 
operating activities principally resulted from the payment of prior period 
accruals.

At June 30, 1998, the Company's working capital was $25.9 million.  The 
Company cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately 
$21.2 million at June 30, 1998 compared with $24.5 million of cash, cash 
equivalents and short-term investments at December 31, 1997.  The decrease is 
primarily due to the purchase by the Company of 429,400 shares of its Common 
Stock.

The Company does not currently have any significant capital commitments and 
believes that existing sources of liquidity and funds expected to be generated 
from operations will provide adequate cash to fund the Company's anticipated 
working capital and other cash needs for the foreseeable future.

Year 2000

The rapid approach of Year 2000 presents significant issues for many computer 
systems, since much of the software in use today may not accurately process 
data beyond 1999.  The Company has recently implemented new information 
systems and accordingly does not anticipate any internal Year 2000 issue from 
its own information systems, databases or programs.  However, the Company 
could be adversely impacted by Year 2000 issues faced by major distributors, 
suppliers, customers, vendors and financial service organizations with which 
the Company interacts.  The Company is currently taking steps to address the 
impact, if any, of the Year 2000 issue on the operations of the Company.  
There can be no assurances that such a review will detect all potential 
failures of the Company's and/or third-party's computer systems.  A 
significant failure of the Company's or a third-party's computer system could 
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition 
and results of operations.  

Certain software products currently installed at customer sites will require 
upgrade or other remediation to become year 2000 compliant.  The Company 
believes that it is not legally responsible for costs incurred by its 
customers to achieve their year 2000  compliance.  However, the Company is 
taking steps to identify affected customers, raise customer awareness related 
to noncompliance of the Company's older products, and assist the customer base 
to assess their risks.  The Company may see increasing customer satisfaction 
costs related to these actions over the next few years.  The potential impact 
on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations is 
not known at this time.

Risk Factors That Could Effect Results of Operations

Significant Fluctuations in Operating Results.  There can be no assurance that 
the Company will be profitable on a quarterly or annual basis in the future.  
The Company has experienced quarterly fluctuations in operating results caused 
by various factors, including the timing of orders by major customers, 
customer inventory levels, shifts in product mix, the incurrence of 
acquisition-related costs and general conditions in the healthcare industry 
which have reduced capital equipment budgets and delayed or reduced the 
adoption of teleradiology, and expects that these fluctuations will continue.  

The Company typically does not obtain long-term volume purchase contracts from 
its customers, and a substantial portion of the Company's backlog is scheduled 
for delivery within 90 days or less.  Customers may cancel orders and change 
volume levels or delivery times without penalty.  Quarterly sales and 
operating results therefore depend on the volume and timing of the backlog as 
well as bookings received during the quarter.  A significant portion of the 
Company's operating expenses are fixed, and planned expenditures are based 
primarily on sales forecasts and product development programs.  If sales do 
not meet the Company's expectations in any given period, the materially 
adverse impact on operating results may be magnified by the Company's 
inability to adjust operating expenses sufficiently or quickly enough to 
compensate for such a shortfall.  Furthermore, the Company's gross margins may 
decrease in the future due to increasing sales of lower margin products and 
volume discounts.  Results of operations in any period should not be 
considered indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.  
Fluctuations in operating results may also result in fluctuations in the price 
of the Company's Common Stock.  

Uncertainty of Market Acceptance.  The Company's success is dependent on 
market acceptance of its new and existing products.  There can be no assurance 
that sales of new products will achieve significant market acceptance in the 
future.  In addition, third party payers, such as governmental programs and 
private insurance plans, can indirectly affect the pricing or the relative 
attractiveness of the Company's products by regulating the maximum amount of 
reimbursement that they will provide for the taking, storing and 
interpretation of medical images.  A decrease in the reimbursement amounts for 
radiological procedures may decrease the amount which physicians, clinics and 
hospitals are able to charge patients for such services.  As a result, 
adoption of teleradiology and PACS may slow as capital investment budgets are 
reduced, thereby significantly reducing the demand for the Company's products.  

New Product Development in Software Products; Uncertainty of Market 
Acceptance.  The market for PACS and teleradiology software is uncertain.  
Current and future competitors are likely to introduce competing software, 
making it difficult to predict the rate at which the market will grow, if at 
all, or the rate at which new or increased competition will result in market 
saturation. If the market for such software fails to grow or grows more slowly 
than anticipated, the Company's business, financial condition and results of 
operations would be materially adversely affected.  The Company expects that 
the sales cycle for PACS and teleradiology software through the OEM and System 
Integrator sales channels will be longer than that for its other existing 
hardware products.  Accordingly, the Company's quarterly revenues and 
operating results may be subject to greater fluctuation as the Company begins 
to market and sell PACS and teleradiology software through these new channels.  
Additionally, the Company has limited experience in marketing, installing and 
supporting its software through these sales channels, and there can be no 
assurance that the Company can obtain the necessary resources to market, 
install and support its PACS and teleradiology software in an efficient, cost-
effective and competitive manner.  The failure of PACS and teleradiology 
software to achieve market acceptance for any reason could have a material 
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of 
operations.

Significant Risks Associated with Acquisitions. The integration of any 
acquisitions will require special attention from management, which may 
temporarily distract its attention from the day-to-day business of the 
Company.  Any acquisitions will also require integration of the companies' 
product offerings and coordination of research and development and sales and 
marketing activities.  Furthermore, as a result of acquisitions, the Company 
may enter markets in which it has no or little direct prior experience.  There 
can also be no assurance that the Company will be able to retain key technical 
personnel of an acquired company or recruit new management personnel for the 
acquired businesses, or that the Company will, or may in the future, realize 
any benefits as a result of such acquisitions.  Acquisitions by the Company 
may result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the 
incurrence of debt, one-time acquisition charges and amortization expenses 
related to goodwill and intangible assets, each of which could be significant 
and could materially adversely affect the Company's financial condition and 
results of operations.  In addition, the Company believes that it may be 
required to expand and enhance its financial and management controls, 
reporting systems and procedures as it integrates acquisitions.  There can be 
no assurance that the Company will be able to do so effectively, and failure 
to do so when necessary would have a material adverse effect upon the 
Company's business and results of operations.  

New Product Development in Image Digitizers; Rapid Technological Change; 
Product Development. The market for the Company's products is characterized by 
rapid technological advances, changes in customer requirements and frequent 
new product introductions and enhancements.  The Company's future success will 
depend upon its ability to enhance its current products, to develop and 
introduce new products that keep pace with technological developments and to 
respond to evolving customer requirements.  Any failure by the Company to 
anticipate or respond adequately to technological developments by its 
competitors or to changes in customer requirements, or any significant delays 
in product development or introduction, could result in a loss of 
competitiveness or revenues.  In the past, the Company has experienced delays 
in the development and introduction of new products and product enhancements, 
and there can be no assurance that the Company will not experience such delays 
in the future.  In addition, new product introductions or enhancements by the 
Company's competitors or the use of other technologies that do not depend on 
film digitization could cause a decline in sales or loss of market acceptance 
of the Company's products.  In particular, computed radiography ("CR") systems 
are currently available and have been sold for medical applications for over 
ten years with limited acceptance.  In addition, several companies have 
announced developments leveraging the technology used in flat panel displays 
to produce high-resolution, two dimensional image sensor arrays that make it 
possible for x-ray images to be captured digitally without film or chemical 
processing.  While this emerging technology, known as digital radiography 
("DR"), is expensive, there can be no assurance that future advances in this 
technology or other technologies will not produce systems better positioned 
for the marketplace that will therefore reduce the digitizer market to the 
then installed base of imaging systems.  There can be no assurance that the 
Company will be successful in developing and marketing new products or product 
enhancements on a timely or cost-effective basis, and such failure could have 
a material adverse effect on the Company's business and results of operations.  

Risks Associated With Software Products.  Software and systems as complex as 
those offered by the Company frequently contain undetected errors or failures 
when first introduced or when new versions are released.  The Company has in 
the past discovered bugs and system errors in certain of its software 
enhancements, both before and after initial shipment.  There can be no 
assurance that, despite testing by the Company, errors will not occur in the 
Company's products resulting in loss of, or delay in, the Company's business, 
financial condition and results of operations.  Peripherals and hardware from 
third party manufacturers also may contain defects and incompatibilities which 
could adversely affect market acceptance of the Company's software products.  

Long Sales Cycles.  The OEM and System Integrator sales cycle for PACS and 
teleradiology systems is lengthy.  The sales cycle of the Company's products 
is subject to delays associated with changes or the anticipation of changes in 
the regulatory environment affecting healthcare enterprises, changes in the 
customer's strategic system initiatives, competing information systems 
projects within the customer organization, consolidation in the healthcare 
industry in general, the highly sophisticated nature of the Company's software 
and competition in the PACS and teleradiology markets in general.  The time 
required from initial contact to purchase order typically ranges from one to 
six months, and the time from purchase order to delivery and recognition of 
revenue typically ranges from one to six months.  During the sales process, 
the Company expends substantial time, effort and funds preparing a contract 
proposal, demonstrating the software and negotiating the purchase order.  For 
these and other reasons, the Company cannot predict when or if the sales 
process with a prospective customer will result in a purchase order.

Competition. Competition in the United States laser-based film digitizer 
market has not been significant.  In 1996 CLS entered the market with a 
product similar to the laser-based film digitizers offered by Lumisys. To 
date, the Company is unaware of any sales made by CLS. Several Japanese 
competitors such as Konica, Nishimoto Sangyo and Abe Sekkei offer competitive 
products on an international basis and may decide in the future to devote 
additional resources to marketing competitive products in the United States.   
In addition, General Scanning Inc. is expected to introduce a laser-based film 
digitizer during 1998. The markets for medical film digitizers incorporating 
charge-coupled devices ("CCDs") are highly competitive.  The Company faces 
competition from companies such as Vidar Systems Inc., Canon Inc., Vision Ten 
Inc., Hell Linotype and Howtek in the CCD-based film digitizer market. There 
can be no assurance that the Company's competitors will not develop 
enhancements to, or future generations of, competitive products that will 
offer superior price or performance features that render the Company's 
products less competitive or obsolete.  

In addition, large domestic companies, such as Kodak, Imation, Sterling 
Diagnostics ("Sterling", formerly the medical group of E.I. DuPont de Nemours 
and Company) and General Electric Co. ("GE"), and European companies, such as 
Siemens, Philips Electronics N.V. ("Philips") and Agfa, have the technical and 
financial ability to design and market digitizer products competitive with the 
Company's products, and some of them have in the past produced and marketed 
such products.  While most of these companies currently purchase products from 
the Company, the Company believes that it will be required to continue to 
improve the price and performance characteristics of its products to retain 
their business especially in view of the fact that these customers are not 
contractually required to purchase their digitizers exclusively or at all from 
the Company.  All of these companies have significantly greater financial, 
marketing and manufacturing resources than the Company and would be 
significant competitors if they decided to enter this market. 

The markets for medical video image digitizers are also highly competitive. 
Competitors in the video digitizer market are Precision Digital Images Corp., 
Epix, Inc. and Matrox Electronic Systems Ltd. 

Competition in the OEM markets for PACS and teleradiology software products 
and services is also intense and is expected to increase.  The Company's 
principal competitors in the PACS and teleradiology software market are ISG, 
Applicare Medical Imaging B.V.,  Mitra Imaging Inc.,  and Access Radiology 
Corporation.  Furthermore, other major healthcare information and equipment 
companies not presently offering competing products may enter the Company's 
markets.  Increased competition could result in price reduction, reduced gross 
margins and loss of market share, any of which could materially adversely 
effect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.  
In addition, many of the Company's competitors and potential competitors have 
significantly greater financial, technical, product development, marketing and 
other resources and market recognition than the Company in the 
Internet/Intranet clinical information systems area.  Many of the Company's 
competitors also currently have, or may develop or acquire, substantial 
installed customer bases in the healthcare industry.  As a result of these 
factors, the Company's competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new 
or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements or to devote 
greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products 
than the Company.  There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to 
compete successfully against current and future competitors or that 
competitive pressures faced by the Company will not have a materially adverse 
effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations. 

Proprietary Rights.  The Company relies on a combination of trade secrets, 
copyright and trademark laws, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions 
to protect its proprietary rights.  The Company currently has no blocking 
patents covering its technology and it has not registered any of its 
trademarks.  There can be no assurance that measures taken by the Company to 
protect its intellectual property will be adequate or that the Company's 
competitors will not independently develop systems and services that are 
substantially equivalent or superior to those of the Company.  Substantial 
litigation regarding intellectual property rights exists in the software 
industry, and the Company expects that software products may be increasingly 
subject to third-party infringement claims as the number of competitors in the 
Company's industry segment grows and the functionality of systems overlap.  
Although the Company believes that its systems and applications do not 
infringe upon the proprietary rights of third-parties, there can be no 
assurance that third-parties will not assert infringement claims against the 
Company in the future, that the Company would prevail in any such dispute or 
that a license or similar agreement will be available on reasonable terms in 
the event of an unfavorable ruling on any such claim.  In addition, any such 
claim may require the Company to incur substantial litigation expenses or 
subject the Company to significant liabilities and could have a material 
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of 
operations.

Customer Concentration; Reliance on OEMs.  Although no company currently 
represents more than 10% of the Company's revenues, a significant portion of 
the Company's net sales is derived from a small number of customers.  Large 
customers also accounted for a significant portion of the Company's backlog at 
June 30, 1998.  The Company expects to continue to depend upon its principal 
customers for a significant portion of its sales, although there can be no 
assurance that the Company's principal customers will continue to purchase 
products and services from the Company at current levels, if at all.  The loss 
of one or more major customers or a change in their buying patterns could have 
a material adverse effect on the Company's business and results of operations. 

Single-Source Suppliers.  The Company purchases industry-standard parts and 
components for the assembly of its products, generally from multiple vendors.  
Although the Company relies on single-source suppliers for certain components, 
such as lasers, photomultiplier tubes and certain electronic components 
primarily to control price and quality, the Company believes that alternate 
sources of supply are available from other vendors for such components and has 
qualified second source suppliers for some, but not all, single-sourced parts.  
The Company maintains good relationships with its vendors and, to date, has 
not experienced any material supply problems.  While the Company seeks to 
maintain an adequate inventory of single-sourced components, there can be no 
assurance that such inventories will be sufficient or that delays in part or 
component deliveries will not occur in the future, which could result in 
delays or reductions in product shipments.  Furthermore, even if currently 
single-sourced components could be replaced by other qualified parts, product 
redesign and testing could be costly and time consuming.  These factors could 
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition 
and results of operations.

Government Regulation.  The manufacturing and marketing of the Company's 
digitizer, video board, and software products are subject to extensive 
government regulation in the United States and in other countries, and the 
process of obtaining and maintaining required regulatory approvals is lengthy, 
expensive and uncertain.  If a medical device manufacturer can establish that 
a newly developed device is "substantially equivalent" to a device that was 
legally marketed prior to May 1976, the date on which the Medical Device 
Amendments of 1976 were enacted, or to a device the FDA found to be 
substantially equivalent to a legally marketed pre-1976 device, the 
manufacturer may seek marketing clearance from the FDA to market the device by 
filing a 510(k) premarket notification.  The 510(k) premarket notification 
must be supported by appropriate data establishing the claim of substantial 
equivalence to the satisfaction of the FDA.  Receipt of 510(k) clearance 
normally takes at least three months, but may take much longer and may require 
the submission of clinical safety and efficacy data to the FDA.  All of the 
Company's laser-based film digitizers, the CCD-based film digitizer and 
software products that are commercially available have received 510(k) 
clearance.  There can be no assurance that 510(k) clearance for any future 
product or any modification of an existing product will be granted, or that 
the process will not be unduly lengthy.  In the future, the FDA may require 
manufacturers of certain medical devices to engage in a more thorough and time 
consuming approval process than the 510(k) process, which could have a 
material adverse effect on the Company's business and results of operations.

The Company is also required to register as a Class II medical device 
manufacturer with the FDA and state agencies, such as the California 
Department of Health Services ("CDHS").  As such, the Company may be inspected 
on a routine basis by both the FDA and the CDHS for compliance with the FDA's 
GMP, QSR and other applicable regulations.  These regulations require that the 
Company manufacture its products and maintain its documents in a prescribed 
manner with respect to manufacturing, reporting of product malfunctions and 
other matters.  If the FDA believes that a company is not in compliance with 
federal regulatory requirements, it can institute proceedings to detain or 
seize products, issue a recall, prohibit marketing and sales of the company's 
products and assess civil and criminal penalties against the company, its 
officers or its employees.  Failure to comply with the regulatory requirements 
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and results of 
operations.  The Sunnyvale facility of the Company was inspected by the CDHS 
and the FDA in 1996 and was found to be compliant with both the CDHS's and 
FDA's GMP regulations.  In the second quarter of 1998 the Tucson facility of 
the Company was inspected by the FDA and was found to have some items not in 
compliance with the FDA's GMP regulations.  The Company has taken corrective 
action on the FDA's observations and has invited the FDA back for another 
inspection.  The FDA has not yet re-inspected the Tucson facility. 

The Company also relies on 510(k) pre-market notification for its current 
internally developed products.  Additionally, the Company relies on 510(k) 
clearance and the finding by the FDA of substantial equivalence for the Image 
Management System (now marketed as IA-2000) technology acquired from Star 
Technologies, Inc. in July 1997.  The Company believes that its success 
depends upon commercial sales of new versions of its PACS and teleradiology 
software which may be subject to clearance or approval from the FDA and its 
foreign counterparts.  There can be no assurance that a similar 510(k) 
clearance for any future product or enhancement of an existing product will be 
granted or that the process will not be lengthy.  If the Company  cannot 
establish that a product is "substantially equivalent" to certain legally 
marketed devices, the 510(k) clearance procedure may be unavailable and the 
Company may be required to utilize the longer and more expensive PMA process.  
Failure to receive or delays in receipt of FDA clearances or approvals, 
including the need for additional data as a prerequisite to clearance or 
approval, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, 
financial condition and results of operations.  

Sales of the Company's products outside the United States are subject to 
foreign regulatory requirements that vary from country to country. Additional 
approvals from foreign regulatory authorities may be required, and there can 
be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain foreign approvals on a 
timely basis or at all, or that it will not be required to incur significant 
costs in obtaining or maintaining its foreign regulatory approvals.  Starting 
in mid 1998, the Company will be required to obtain certifications necessary 
to enable the "CE" mark to be affixed to the Company's products by mid 1998 to 
continue commercial sales in member countries of the European Union.  The CE 
mark is an international symbol of quality and complies with applicable 
European medical device directives.  The Company has obtained this CE 
certification.  Failure to comply with foreign regulatory requirements could 
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition 
and results of operations.

Litigation.  On July 9, 1997 and July 10, 1997 two securities class action 
lawsuits were filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County 
of Santa Clara, and the United States District Court for the Northern District 
of California against the Company, several of its current and former officers 
and directors, and its underwriters.  The complaints are brought on behalf of 
all persons who purchased the Company's common stock between November 15, 1995 
and July 11, 1996.  The complaints allege that defendants made material false 
statements and omitted to disclose material information concerning the 
Company's actual and expected performance, causing the price of the Company's 
stock to be artificially inflated.  The federal complaint alleges claims under 
Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; the state 
complaint alleges claims under California's securities statutes.  Neither 
complaint specifies the amount of damages sought.  The Company and the other 
defendants deny all allegations of wrongdoing.  On January 9, 1998, the court 
dismissed the state court complaint with leave to amend.  On March 31, 1998, 
the court dismissed the federal complaint with leave to amend.  On May 26, 
1998, the state court dismissed plaintiff's first amended complaint with leave 
to amend.  Plaintiffs have filed a first amended complaint in the federal 
action, and a second amended complaint in the state action.  Defendants have 
filed motions to dismiss both of these complaints.  There can be no assurance 
that the Company will prevail in this action or that the plaintiffs will not 
recover damages.

Third-Party Reimbursement.  Third-party payers, such as governmental programs 
and private insurance plans, can indirectly affect the pricing or the relative 
attractiveness of the Company's products by regulating the maximum amount of 
reimbursement that they will provide for the taking, storing and 
interpretation of medical images.  In recent years, healthcare costs have 
risen substantially, and third-party payers have come under increasing 
pressure to reduce such costs.  In this regard, extensive studies undertaken 
by the Clinton Administration, even though not successfully translated into 
regulatory action, have stimulated widespread analysis and reaction in the 
private sector focused on healthcare cost reductions, which may involve 
reductions in reimbursement rates in radiology.  A decrease in the 
reimbursement amounts for radiological procedures may decrease the amount 
which physicians, clinics and hospitals are able to charge patients for such 
services.  As a result, adoption of teleradiology and PACS may slow as capital 
investment budgets are reduced, and the demand for the Company's products 
could be significantly reduced.

Product Liability and Insurance.  The manufacture and sale of medical products 
entails significant risk of product liability claims.  While the Company 
believes that its current insurance coverage is appropriate, there can be no 
assurance that such coverage is adequate to protect the Company from any 
liabilities it might incur in connection with the sale of the Company's 
products.  In addition, the Company may require increased product liability 
coverage as additional products are commercialized.  Such insurance is 
expensive and in the future may not be available on acceptable terms, if at 
all.  A successful product liability claim or series of claims brought against 
the Company in excess of its insurance coverage could have a material adverse 
effect on the Company's business and results of operations.

Volatility of Stock Prices.  The market price of the Company's Common Stock 
has been and may continue to be volatile.  This volatility may result from a 
number of factors, including fluctuations in the Company's quarterly revenues 
and net income, announcements of technical innovations or new commercial 
products by the Company or its competitors, and conditions in the market for 
medical image digitizers and the teleradiology and health care industry and 
for PACS and teleradiology products and healthcare information systems and 
services.  Also, the stock market has experienced and continues to experience 
extreme price and volume fluctuations which have affected the market prices of 
securities, particularly those of medical technology companies, and which 
often have been unrelated to the operating performance of the companies. These 
broad market fluctuations, as well as general economic and political 
conditions, may adversely affect the market price of the Company's Common 
Stock in future periods.

Market Risk Disclosure.  Lumisys has an investment portfolio of fixed income 
that are classified as "available-for-sale securities".  These securities, 
like all fixed income instruments, are subject to interest rate risk and will 
fall in value if market interest rates increase.  Lumisys attempts to limit 
this exposure by investing primarily in short-term securities.

From time to time, Lumisys makes certain capital equipment or other purchases 
denominated in foreign currencies.  As a result, Lumisys' cash flows and 
earnings are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency 
exchange rates.  Lumisys attempts to limit these exposures through operational 
strategies and generally has not hedged currency exposures.

Year 2000 Issue.  The rapid approach of Year 2000 presents significant issues 
for many computer systems, since much of the software in use today may not 
accurately process data beyond 1999.  The Company has recently implemented new 
information systems and accordingly does not anticipate any internal Year 2000 
issue from its own information systems, databases or programs.  However, the 
Company could be adversely impacted by Year 2000 issues faced by major 
distributors, suppliers, customers, vendors and financial service 
organizations with which the Company interacts.  The Company is currently 
taking steps to address the impact, if any, of the Year 2000 issue on the 
operations of the Company.  There can be no assurances that such a review will 
detect all potential failures of the Company's and/or third-party's computer 
systems.  A significant failure of the Company's or a third-party's computer 
system could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, 
financial condition and results of operations.  

Certain software products currently installed at customer sites will require 
upgrade or other remediation to become year 2000 compliant.  The Company 
believes that it is not legally responsible for costs incurred by its 
customers to achieve their year 2000  compliance.  However, the Company is 
taking steps to identify affected customers, raise customer awareness related 
to noncompliance of the Company's older products, and assist the customer base 
to assess their risks.  The Company may see increasing customer satisfaction 
costs related to these actions over the next few years.  The potential impact 
on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations is 
not known at this time.

Part 2 - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

Litigation.  On July 9, 1997 and July 10, 1997 two securities class action 
lawsuits were filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County 
of Santa Clara, and the United States District Court for the Northern District 
of California against the Company, several of its current and former officers 
and directors, and its underwriters.  The complaints are brought on behalf of 
all persons who purchased the Company's common stock between November 15, 1995 
and July 11, 1996.  The complaints allege that defendants made material false 
statements and omitted to disclose material information concerning the 
Company's actual and expected performance, causing the price of the Company's 
stock to be artificially inflated.  The federal complaint alleges claims under 
Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; the state 
complaint alleges claims under California's securities statutes.  Neither 
complaint specifies the amount of damages sought.  The Company and the other 
defendants deny all allegations of wrongdoing.  On January 9, 1998, the court 
dismissed the state court complaint with leave to amend.  On March 31, 1998, 
the court dismissed the federal complaint with leave to amend.  On May 26, 
1998, the state court dismissed plaintiff's first amended complaint with leave 
to amend.  Plaintiffs have filed a first amended complaint in the federal 
action, and a second amended complaint in the state action.  Defendants have 
filed motions to dismiss both of these complaints.  There can be no assurance 
that the Company will prevail in this action or that the plaintiffs will not 
recover damages.

On July 18, 1997, a third-party filed a complaint in Santa Clara Superior 
Court against the Company and one of its officers.  The complaint contains 
causes of action for liable, defamation, negligent infliction of emotional 
distress and punitive damages.  The Company and the other defendant vigorously 
deny all allegations of wrongdoing and intend to defend themselves 
aggressively.
