Item 4.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

On November 2, 1998 Pricewaterhouse Coopers L.L.P. (PWC) notified the
Company in writing that PWC would no longer serve as the Company's
independent accountants.  At no time during the fiscal years ended March
31, 1997 and March 31, 1998, nor during the subsequent interim periods,
have there been any disagreements with PWC on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope
or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction
would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion
to the subject matter of the disagreement, and said firm has not advised
the registrant of any reportable event.  On November 6, 1998, United
States Bankruptcy Judge James F. Queenan, Jr. signed an order authorizing
MRS Technology, Inc.  to employ Verdolino & Lowey, P.C. as independent
public accountants to the debtor during the Company's bankruptcy
proceedings.  Verdolino & Lowey are located at 124 Washington Street,
Suite 101, Foxborough, MA 02035.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Director's of MRS Technology appoved
the change in auditors.

The Company will send PWC a copy of this report on Form 8-K when filed
with a request to furnish to the company a letter addressed to the
Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the
above statements, and if not, stating the respects with which it does not
agree.

The Company shall request that PWC provide such a letter as promptly as
possible so that the Comapny can file such letter with the Commission
within 10 business days after the filing of this report.


Item 5.  Other Events

Robert P. Schechter resigned from the MRS Technology, Inc. Board of
Directors effective October 19, 1998.  Mr. Schechter indicated in his
letter of resignation that his workload as Chairman and CEO of Natural
Microsystems and other commitments make it impossible for him to continue
to serve MRS Technology effectively.  Replacing Mr. Schechter as a member
of the Audit and Compensation Committees will be current board member,
Paul Wiefels.
