Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On November 13, 2007, Merge Technologies Incorporated (the "Registrant") received a written notification from the staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market stating that the Registrant’s failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, as required by NASD Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14), would serve as an additional basis for delisting the Registrant’s common stock from The Nasdaq Stock Market. The written notification further provides that the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel will consider this matter in rendering its determination regarding the Registrant’s continued listing on the NASDAQ Global Market.

This notification is in addition to the previously disclosed written notification from the staff received on August 13, 2007, stating that the Registrant was not in compliance with NASD Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) because the Registrant did not timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, and that the Registrant’s common stock was, therefore, subject to delisting from the NASDAQ Global Market.

On November 1, 2007, the Registrant disclosed that it had received a written notification from the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel stating that the panel determined to continue the listing of the Registrant’s common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market, subject to the Registrant’s filing its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 by no later than January 29, 2008. As previously disclosed, the Registrant expects to satisfy all requirements for continued listing and make all of the necessary filings, including its Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2007 and September 30, 2007, on or before December 31, 2007.

A copy of the Registrant’s press release with respect to this matter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and the information contained therein is incorporated herein by reference.
