SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 6, 2002

Miracor Diagnostics, Inc. (OTCBB: MRDG) announced today that it has opened its 10th diagnostic imaging center in Kissimmee, Florida. The center has opened with a General Electric Profile Open MRI scanner and is located approximately 30 miles south of Miracor's Orlando center.

"Miracor has grown from four to ten centers over the past two years," said M. Lee Hulsebus, Chairman and CEO of Miracor Diagnostics, Inc. "We will continually look for opportunities to expand in the areas in which we currently serve while keeping an eye on new markets. Adding these six centers while actually reducing our corporate overhead over the same period has provided Miracor with increased profitability each year."

The Kissimmee and Orlando centers will operate as one provider allowing the use of current managed care and network contracts. Additionally, this second center in the Orlando area will give both patients and referring physicians a choice of facilities to have their scans completed.

Notes Payable Conversion

Four directors and officers elected to convert their $25,000 loans to the Company pursuant to the terms of the notes. Each note converted at the stipulated $0.30 conversion price into 83,333 shares. "That these individuals converted at a price 25% higher than the then market price of 24 cents demonstrates the confidence held in the future of Miracor," stated Bob Muehlberg, President and COO of Miracor and one of the noteholders.
