MELVILLE, NEW YORK, July 24, 2007 - FONAR Corporation (NASDAQ-FONR), The Inventor of MR ScanningÔ, reported today that Sana Khan, M. D., Ph.D., a leading radiologist and Chairman of TrueMRI, headquartered in Anaheim, California, has purchased two more FONAR UPRIGHTÔ MRIs and has agreed to purchase four more.
The two purchases were part of the group of seven sales in the announcement of July 10 that did not elaborate on the buyers themselves and the reasons they gave for purchasing FONAR's UPRIGHTÔ Multi-PositionÔ MRI and the specific need it meets in their particular clinical practice.

Dr. Khan said, "We founded TrueMRI with the mission to leverage emerging medical technologies that break the boundaries of traditional diagnostic imaging, and to capture pathology with precision.
That is why we selected the FONAR UPRIGHTÔ MRI as the centerpiece for our business.
It enables TrueMRI to deliver True Positives and True Negatives of a patient's True Condition."
"Our first UPRIGHTÔ MRI was installed in Southern California in June 2002," continued Dr. Khan.
"At that time, it was our premise that position and weight-bearing impact a patient and consequently the radiology reading.
Now we have seen thousands of cases where the differences are undeniable."
Dr. Khan continued, "We have performed over 50,000 Positional MRIs and I believe we have more experience than anyone else in the application and interpretation of weight-bearing kinetic MRI.
...
This is one of numerous innovations that the UPRIGHTÔ MRI has allowed us to do," stated Dr. Khan.
"Our passion is to provide evidence-based, objective analysis of an injury by quantifying the patient's pathology through our proprietary software revealing the `true state' of a patient's anatomy," said Dr. Khan.
"Another important reason why we continue to purchase FONAR MRIs is the support and service that we receive from FONAR.
The machine is an absolute work-horse and the applications, services and the daily interactions that take place with FONAR have allowed us to grow our business without any major interruptions," exclaimed Dr. Khan.
