2007 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

PROXY STATEMENT

Dated June 15, 2007
_______________________________

GENERAL INFORMATION

Solicitation. This proxy statement is furnished to the stockholders of Neoprobe Corporation, a Delaware corporation, in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of the Company of proxies to be voted at the Company’s 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on July 26, 2007, and any adjournment thereof. This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card are first being mailed to stockholders on or about June 15, 2007.

Company Address. The mailing address of our principal executive offices is 425 Metro Place North, Suite 300, Dublin, Ohio 43017.

Voting Rights. Stockholders of record at the close of business on June 1, 2007, are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of that date, there were 62,488,426 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $.001 per share, outstanding. Each holder of common stock of record on June 1, 2007, is entitled to one vote per share held with respect to all matters which may be brought before the Annual Meeting.

Authorization. The shares represented by the accompanying proxy will be voted as directed if the proxy is properly completed, signed, and received by us. The proxy will be voted at the discretion of the persons acting under the proxy to transact such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting and any adjournment thereof.

Revocation. Any stockholder returning the accompanying proxy has the power to revoke it at any time before its exercise by giving notice of revocation to the Company, by duly executing and delivering to the Company a proxy card bearing a later date, or by voting in person at the Annual Meeting.

Tabulation. Under Section 216 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL) and our by-laws, the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Shares represented by signed proxies that are returned to the Company will be counted toward the quorum in all matters even though they are marked as “Abstain,” “Against” or “Withhold Authority” on one or more or all matters or they are not marked at all (see General Information-Authorization). Broker/dealers, who hold their customers’ shares in street name, may, under the applicable rules of the exchanges and other self-regulatory organizations of which such broker/dealers are members, sign and submit proxies for such shares and may vote such shares on routine matters, which, under such rules, typically include the election of directors, but broker/dealers may not vote such shares on other matters without specific instructions from the customer who owns such shares. Proxies signed and submitted by broker/dealers that have not been voted on certain matters as described in the previous sentence are referred to as broker non-votes. Such proxies count toward the establishment of a quorum.

Under Section 216 of the DGCL and our by-laws, the election of the director nominees requires the favorable vote of a plurality of all votes cast by the holders of our common stock at a meeting at which a quorum is present. Proxies that are marked “Withhold Authority” and broker non-votes will not be counted toward a nominee’s achievement of a plurality and, thus, will have no effect.




ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Nominees for Election as Directors

We presently have seven directors on our Board of Directors, comprised of two directors in two classes and three directors in an additional class, with terms expiring at the Annual Meetings in 2007, 2008 and 2009.

It is intended that, unless otherwise directed, the shares represented by the enclosed proxy will be voted FOR the election of Messrs. Avital and Bupp. We have no reason to believe that either nominee will not stand for election or serve as a director.

INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Board of Directors Meetings

Our Board of Directors held a total of eight meetings in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, and each of the directors attended at least 75 percent of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors and committees (if any) on which he served. It is our policy that all directors attend the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. However, conflicts and unforeseen events may prevent the attendance of a director, or directors. All members of our Board of Directors attended the 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Independence

Our Board of Directors has adopted the definition of “independence” as described under Section 301 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”), Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Nasdaq Rules 4200 and 4350. Our Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Aschinger, Avital, Miller and Whitley, and Drs. Bland and Krevans meet the independence requirements.

Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee

We established the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee in October, 2006. The Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee replaced our previously established Nominating and Compensation Committees. The members of the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee are Julius R. Krevans, M.D., Carl J. Aschinger, Jr., and Kirby I. Bland, M.D., each of whom is “independent” under the Nasdaq rules referenced above. The Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee held one meeting in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. The Board of Directors adopted a written Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee Charter in October, 2006, and amended the Charter in April, 2007. A copy of the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee Charter, as amended, is posted on the Company’s website at www.neoprobe.com.

The Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee: (1) discharges the Board of Directors’ responsibilities relating to the compensation of our directors, executive officers and associates; (2) identifies and recommends to our Board of Directors nominees for election to the Board; and (3) assists our Board of Directors in the implementation of sound corporate governance principles and practices.

With respect to its compensation functions, the Committee's purpose is to:

 
·
Evaluate and approve executive officer compensation and review and make recommendations to the Board with respect to director compensation, including incentive or equity-based compensation plans;
 
·
Review and evaluate any discussion and analysis of executive officer and director compensation included in the Company’s annual report or proxy statement, and prepare and approve any report on executive officer and director compensation for inclusion in the Company’s annual report or proxy statement required by applicable rules and regulations; and
 
·
Monitor and evaluate, at the Committee’s discretion, matters relating to the compensation and benefits structure of the Company and such other domestic and foreign subsidiaries or affiliates, as it deems appropriate.

The Committee strives to provide fair compensation to executive officers based on their performance and contribution to the Company and to provide incentives that attract and retain key executives, instill a long-term commitment to the Company, and develop a pride and sense of Company ownership, all in a manner consistent with shareholder interests. In addition, the Committee strives to provide fair compensation to directors, taking into consideration compensation paid to directors of comparable companies and the specific duties of each director.

With respect to its nominating and governance functions, the Committee’s purpose is to:

 
·
Assist the Board by identifying individuals qualified to become Board members, and recommend to the Board the director nominees whenever directors are to be appointed or elected, whether at the next annual meeting of shareholders or otherwise;

4


 
·
Review the qualifications and independence of the members of the Board and its various committees on a periodic basis and make any recommendations to the Board the Committee may deem appropriate concerning any recommended changes in the composition or membership of the Board, or any of its committees;
 
·
Develop and recommend to the Board any policies it may deem appropriate with regard to consideration of director candidates to be recommended to security holders;
 
·
Develop and recommend to the Board corporate governance principles applicable to the Company;
 
·
Conduct the annual review of the performance of the Board, the Committees of the Board and Company’s executive management;
 
·
Recommend to the Board director nominees for each committee; and
 
·
Develop and recommend to the Board any policies or processes it may deem appropriate for security holders to send communications to the Board.

Our directors play a critical role in guiding our strategic direction and oversee the management of our Company. Board candidates are considered based on various criteria, such as their broad based business and professional skills and experiences, a global business and social perspective, concern for long term interests of stockholders, and personal integrity and judgment. In addition, directors must have available time to devote to Board activities and to enhance their knowledge of the industry. Accordingly, we seek to attract and retain highly qualified directors who have sufficient time to attend to their substantial duties and responsibilities to our Company. Recent developments in corporate governance and financial reporting have resulted in an increased demand for such highly qualified and productive public company directors.

Our Board of Directors will consider the recommendations of stockholders regarding potential director candidates. In order for stockholder recommendations regarding possible director candidates to be considered by our Board of Directors:

 
·
such recommendations must be provided to the Board of Directors c/o Brent L. Larson, Neoprobe Corporation, 425 Metro Place North, Suite 300, Dublin, Ohio 43017, in writing at least 120 days prior to the date of the Company’s proxy statement released to stockholders in connection with the previous year’s annual meeting;
 
·
the nominating stockholder must meet the eligibility requirements to submit a valid stockholder proposal under Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended;
 
·
the stockholder must describe the qualifications, attributes, skills or other qualities of the recommended director candidate; and
 
·
the stockholder must follow the procedures set forth in Article III, Section 2 of our By-Laws.

Nominating Committee

Prior to the establishment of our Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee in October, 2006, a separate Nominating Committee was responsible for identifying nominees to serve on our Board of Directors. The members of the Nominating Committee were Fred B. Miller, Julius R. Krevans, M.D. and J. Frank Whitley, Jr., each of whom is “independent” under the Nasdaq rules referenced above.

The members of the Compensation Committee were Julius R. Krevans, M.D. (Chairman), Carl J. Aschinger, Jr., and Kirby I.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors selects our independent public accountants with whom the Audit Committee reviews the scope of audit and non-audit assignments and related fees, the accounting principles that we use in financial reporting, internal financial auditing procedures and the adequacy of our internal control procedures. The members of our Audit Committee are: Fred B. Miller (Chairman), Carl J. Aschinger, Jr., Reuven Avital, and J. Frank Whitley, Jr., each of whom is “independent” under the Nasdaq rules referenced above. The Board of Directors has determined that Fred B. Miller meets the requirements of an “audit committee financial expert” as set forth in Section 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-B promulgated by the SEC. The Audit Committee held five meetings in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. The Board of Directors adopted a written Amended and Restated Audit Committee Charter on April 30, 2004. A copy of the Amended and Restated Audit Committee Charter is posted on the Company’s website at www.neoprobe.com.


REPORT OF AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Audit Committee consults with our Chief Financial Officer and other key members of our management and with our independent auditors with regard to the plan of audit; reviews, in consultation with the independent auditors, their report of audit, or proposed report of audit and the accompanying management letter, if any; and consults with our Chief Financial Officer and other key members of our management and with our independent auditors with regard to the adequacy of our internal accounting controls.

In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Audit Committee selected BDO Seidman, LLP as our independent accountants for purposes of auditing our financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management and the independent auditors our audited financial statements; discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T; received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditors required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3600T; and discussed with the independent accountants their independence from our Company.

Based on the reviews and discussions with management and BDO Seidman, LLP, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that our audited consolidated financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Board of Directors evaluated the independence of each member of the Audit Committee. As part of its evaluation, the Board of Directors determined, in the exercise of its business judgment, that Messrs.

Based upon its work and the information received in the inquiries outlined above, the Audit Committee is satisfied that its responsibilities under the charter for the period ended December 31, 2006, were met and that our financial reporting and audit processes are functioning effectively.

Bonuses, if any, have been disclosed for the year in which they were earned (i.e., the year to which the service relates).
(b)
Amount represents the dollar amount recognized for financial statement reporting purposes in accordance with SFAS 123(R). Assumptions made in the valuation of stock option awards are disclosed in Item 1(l) of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. Prior to 2006, the Company accounted for stock option awards under APB Opinion No. 25’s intrinsic value method and, as such, generally recognized no compensation cost for employee stock options.
(c)
Amount represents life insurance premiums paid during the fiscal year for the benefit of the Named Executive Officers and matching contributions under the Neoprobe Corporation 401(k) Plan (the Plan).

Employee contributions are invested in mutual funds administered by an independent plan administrator. Company contributions, if any, are made in the form of shares of common stock. The Plan qualifies under section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code, which provides that employee and company contributions and income earned on contributions are not taxable to the employee until withdrawn from the Plan, and that we may deduct our contributions when made.

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to our directors, officers and all employees. The code of business conduct and ethics is posted on our website at www.neoprobe.com. The code of business conduct and ethics may be also obtained free of charge by writing to Neoprobe Corporation, Attn: Chief Financial Officer, 425 Metro Place North, Suite 300, Dublin, Ohio 43017.


CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In December 2004, we completed a private placement of four-year convertible promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $8.1 million with Biomedical Value Fund, L.P., Biomedical Offshore Value Fund, Ltd. and David C. Bupp (our President and CEO). Biomedical Value Fund, L.P. and Biomedical Offshore Value Fund, Ltd. are funds managed by Great Point Partners, LLC. We modified the convertible notes on November 30, 2006, to eliminate the revenue and cash covenants, modify the repayment schedule of the notes, eliminate certain anti-dilution rights, and avoid potential future violations of the debt covenants. The notes originally bore interest at 8% per annum and were originally due on December 13, 2008. In connection with the November 30, 2006 amendment, we cancelled the original notes and issued to the noteholders replacement notes which bear interest at 12% per annum. Instead of the notes being due on December 13, 2008, the principal is now due as follows: $500,000 due January 8, 2007; $1,250,000 due July 9, 2007; $1,750,000 due January 7, 2008; $2,000,000 due July 7, 2008; and the remaining $2,600,000 due January 7, 2009. Additionally, as part of the amendment we agreed to use our best efforts to offer and sell equity securities with gross proceeds of up to $10 million and apply not less than 50% of the net proceeds of any such sales to the repayment of the principal on the notes, and to apply at least 50% of the proceeds of any permitted asset disposition or any permitted licensing, distribution or similar strategic alliance agreement to the repayment of principal on the notes. The notes are freely convertible into shares of our common stock at a price of $0.40 per share. Neoprobe may force conversion of the notes prior to their stated maturity under certain circumstances. As part of the original transaction, we issued the investors 10,125,000 Series T warrants to purchase our common stock at an exercise price of $0.46 per share, expiring in December 2009. In connection with the original placement of this financing, we issued 1,600,000 Series U warrants to purchase our common stock to the placement agents, containing substantially identical terms to the warrants issued to the investors. The convertible promissory note issued to Mr. Bupp in connection with this transaction had an outstanding principal amount of $100,000 on December 31, 2006, and an outstanding principal amount of $100,000 as of June 15, 2007. The largest aggregate amount of principal outstanding on the convertible promissory during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, was $100,000. We made interest payments due under the note to Mr. Bupp totaling $8,333 during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Act of 1934 requires our officers and directors, and greater than 10% stockholders, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of our securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Copies of the reports are required by SEC regulation to be furnished to us. Based on our review of these reports and written representations from reporting persons, we believe that all reporting persons complied with all filing requirements during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, except for one late Form 4 filing for each of Carl J. Aschinger, Reuven Avital, Kirby I. Bland, Julius R. Krevans, Fred B. Miller, J. Frank Whitley, David C. Bupp, Anthony K. Blair, Carl M. Bosch, Rodger A. Brown, Brent L. Larson and Douglas A. Rash. The late Form 4 filing related to an option grant dated December 15, 2006, that was not reported by each of the aforementioned persons until January 17, 2007.

INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

On September 27, 2005, the Audit Committee accepted the resignation of KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the Company’s independent accountants, and approved the engagement of BDO Seidman, LLP (“BDO Seidman”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005. KPMG’s decision to resign was made cooperatively with the Company following discussions regarding the future relationship between KPMG and the Company. The Audit Committee’s decision to change independent accountants was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, and through the date of KPMG’s resignation, there were no disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to KPMG’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter in connection with its report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such periods. There were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B.

The Company has previously provided KPMG with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. During the year ended December 31, 2004, and through the date of KPMG’s resignation, the Company did not consult BDO Seidman with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, or any other matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or reportable event as set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (a)(2)(ii) of Regulation S-B.

A representative of BDO Seidman is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. The representative will have an opportunity to make a statement if he so desires and is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions of stockholders. The Audit Committee has selected BDO Seidman as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for purposes of auditing our financial statements for the current fiscal year ending December 31, 2007.
