Largest Radiology Group in New York Purchases Two FONAR UPRIGHT Multi-Position MRIs

MELVILLE, NEW YORK, January 19, 200 - FONAR Corporation (NASDAQ-FONR), The Inventor of MR Scanning™, announced today that it has sold two UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI scanners to Doshi Diagnostic Imaging Services, P.C., which is among the country’s largest privately held multi-modality imaging companies as well as the largest radiology group in New York. Doshi Diagnostic is headquartered in Bethpage, Long Island, and operates approximately 40 centers in Florida, New Jersey, Long Island, and New York City.

Leena Doshi, M.D., President of Doshi Diagnostic said, “We are always looking for the latest and best technology in radiology. The FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI is a perfect compliment to existing closed high field and open low field magnets already in our system. Gravity and position can impact a patient’s anatomy, so as the body changes from lying down to being upright, so will the MRI images. Aside from it being a general all-purpose MRI producing high-quality images, the UPRIGHT® MRI will be useful in any condition where the weight-bearing image is relevant, such as spine, ankle, knee and hip.”
