MELVILLE, NEW YORK, May 15, 2014 - FONAR Corporation (NASDAQ-FONR), The Inventor of MR Scanning™, reported its financial position for the period ended March 31, 2014. The Company’s two industry segments are: development, manufacturing and servicing of the UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI and management of Stand-Up® MRI (UPRIGHT® MRI) centers. The Company is known as the first Company to invent and manufacture an MRI (Magnetic Resonance) scanner. Leading the list of FONAR’s most recent patented inventions is its technology enabling full weight-bearing MRI imaging, in contrast to the conventional weightless recumbent MRI imaging. This enables, for the first time, full weight-bearing imaging of all the gravity sensitive regions of the human anatomy, e.g. the spine, brain, hip, knee, ankle, foot, shoulder, and pelvis. The FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI scanner is the world’s only MRI scanner licensed under FONAR’s multiple UPRIGHT® MRI patents to scan all the patient’s body parts in their normal full weight-bearing UPRIGHT® position.

Management Discussion

Raymond V. Damadian, president and chairman of Fonar Corporation, said, “We have had increased pressure due to cuts in MRI reimbursements brought about by the Affordable Care Act. Thanks to the uniqueness of our UPRIGHT® full weight-loaded MRI scans, the steadily increasing volumes at the Stand-Up® MRI scanning centers provide significant relief.

“In March, the scan volume at the MRI scanning centers we manage was 15% higher than that of March 2013, setting a new company record,” said Dr. Damadian. “I am very pleased.”

“We expect to facilitate growth of imaging centers through acquisitions, supporting new UPRIGHT® imaging centers, and increasing scan volume at our existing locations by continuing to educate the medical community about the unique diagnostic advantages of UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ full weight-loaded MRI,” added Dr. Damadian.

Significant Events

The Company will hold its annual meeting on June 23, 2014. Dr. Damadian has issued his annual shareholder letter which can be seen on the Company’s Web site at www.fonar.com/shareholder_letter.htm.

About FONAR

FONAR (NASDAQ:FONR), Melville, NY, The Inventor of MR Scanning™, was incorporated in 1978, and is the first, oldest and most experienced MRI company in the industry. FONAR introduced the world’s first commercial MRI in 1980, and went public in 1981. Since its inception, nearly 300 recumbent-OPEN MRIs and 157 UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI scanners have been installed worldwide. FONAR’s stellar product is the UPRIGHT® MRI (also known as the Stand-Up® MRI), the only whole-body MRI that performs Position™ imaging (pMRI™) and scans patients in numerous weight-bearing positions, i.e. standing, sitting, in flexion and extension, as well as the conventional lie-down position. The FONAR UPRIGHT® MRI often sees the patient’s problem that other scanners cannot because they are lie-down and ”weightless” only scanners. The patient-friendly UPRIGHT® MRI has a near-zero claustrophobic rejection rate by patients. As a FONAR customer states, “If the patient is claustrophobic in this scanner, they’ll be claustrophobic in my parking lot.” Approximately 85% of patients are scanned sitting while they watch a 42” flat screen TV. FONAR is headquartered on Long Island, New York.

UPRIGHT® and STAND-UP® are registered trademarks and The Inventor of MR Scanning™, Full Range of Motion™, Multi-Position™, Upright Radiology™, The Proof is in the Picture™, True Flow™, pMRI™, Spondylography™, Dynamic™, Spondylometry™, CSP™, and Landscape™, are trademarks of FONAR Corporation.
