Steven M. Besbeck stated, "The results of operations for the second fiscal quarter were an improvement over the comparable period even though we recognized less revenue associated with sales of clinical and diagnostic imaging systems. For the first half of this fiscal year we experienced slow contract signings as the marketplace adjusted to changes in the reimbursement for some imaging procedures as the result of the enactment of the Deficit Reduction Act (DRA DRA Delta Regional Authority

) in the fourth quarter of 2006. However, we began to experience improved sales closings and new opportunities for potential sales late in our second quarter that is helping to build a larger pipeline of business."
