Company Event

The latest peer review paper using FONAR technology is titled: Upright versus supine MRI: effects of body position on craniocervical CSF flow. The paper was published on December 24, 2021 in collaboration with Doctors Marco Muccio and Yulin Ge at the Bernard and Irene Schwartz Center for Biomedical Imaging, Department of Radiology, NYU Grossman School of Medicine, New York, NY.

The study consisted of 30 asymptomatic volunteers who were scanned on the UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI scanner designed and manufactured by FONAR. The objective of the study was to understand how cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is driven by cardiovascular brain pulsation and how it is affected by body orientation, supine or upright.

In summary, body position has significant effects on CSF flow in and out of the cranium, with more CSF oscillating in supine compared to upright position. Such difference was driven by an increased caudo-cranial diastolic CSF velocity and an increased systolic phase duration when moving from upright to supine position. Extrapolation to a 24-hour timeframe suggests that more time spent in supine position increases total amount of CSF exchange between cranial and spinal CSF space, which may play a beneficial role in waste clearance in the brain.

The study is published by Fluids and Barriers of the CNS. This is an open access, peer-reviewed journal that considers manuscripts on all CNS fluids and barrier systems in health and disease. Its Web address is fluidsbarrierscns.biomedcentral.com. It may also be found at Upright versus supine MRI: effects of body position on craniocervical CSF flow - PubMed (nih.gov)

Management Discussion

Raymond V. Damadian, M.D., Chairman of the Board of FONAR Corporation, said: “I am very pleased to see the peer review article published in fluidsbarrierscns.biomedcentral.com about the FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI, aka STAND-UP® MRI. It is such a great honor to work with Dr. Ge’s distinguished group. We have long recognized that there are significant differences in CSF flow in the upright position as compared to the recumbent-only position that other MRI scanners use. More research on our scanner needs to be done. We see how the flow of CSF interacts with the body, more specifically the brain, and there are strong indications that the flow of CSF causes many problems in the brain.”

Dr. Damadian concluded, “We believe that new research will lead to a new understanding of the role of CSF physiology in neurodegenerative diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and childhood autism. In Fiscal year 2022 and beyond, the Company looks forward to continuing this valuable research with NYU on FONAR’s unique UPRIGHT® MRI imaging platform.”

Timothy Damadian, President and CEO of FONAR said, “For HMCA, the pandemic took its greatest toll in the last quarter of fiscal 2020. Because of it, the total scan volume for the year (166,698 scans) was 9% lower than the scan volume in fiscal 2019. Although we continued to cope with the negative effects of COVID-19 on our business throughout fiscal 2020, scan volume at all the sites began their return to previous levels. At the same time, in spite of the pandemic, we completed four major projects that had been scheduled prior to fiscal 2021: the establishment of a new site in Pembroke Pines, Florida in July of 2020; the addition of a second MRI scanner in Islandia, New York in October of 2020; the addition of a second MRI scanner in the White Plains, New York site in January of 2021; and the acquisition of an existing MRI facility in Yonkers, New York in March 2021. With the scan volumes at the sites returning to previous levels, together with scans attributable to those four projects, we completed 178,364 scans in fiscal 2021, which was 7% more than we completed in fiscal 2020, but still 3% shy of our scan volume in pre-COVID fiscal 2019.

“The negative effects of the pandemic on HMCA business extended into the first six months of fiscal 2022. This was primarily due to the emerging Delta variant of COVID-19 in the first quarter and later its Omicron variant at the end of the second quarter. As a result, illnesses from the pandemic, the accompanying quarantining requirements, and vaccination/masking mandates slowed patient volume. Naturally, the continuing pandemic had the same effect on our employees and the workforce in general, making it very challenging for HMCA to keep the sites and headquarters properly staffed.

“Yet, we have prevailed. The Company’s Total Revenues-Net grew 14% for the six-month period and by 16% for the quarter compared to the corresponding periods of the previous fiscal year. HMCA’s scan volume in the first half of fiscal 2022 (94,460) was the highest first-six-month scan volume ever achieved in the history of the company and 10% higher than the scan volume in the first half of the previous fiscal year. It is important to note that it was also slightly higher (0.7%) than the scan volume in the first six months of pre-COVID fiscal 2019. Although the battle with the pandemic is not yet over, I am very pleased that we have, at least in the first six months, made our return to pre-COVID scan volumes. In considering what HMCA has accomplished under such adverse conditions, and still with no end in sight, I enthusiastically congratulate our management team and all of our employees for their competence, loyalty, and hard work and look forward to a fully rebounded economy and continuing success.”

About FONAR

FONAR, the Inventor of MR Scanning™, located in Melville, NY, 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. FONAR’s signature product is the FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ 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 detects patient problems that other MRI scanners cannot because they are lie-down, ”weightless-only” scanners. The patient-friendly UPRIGHT® MRI has a near-zero patient claustrophobic rejection rate. 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 watching TV.

FONAR has new works-in-progress technology for visualizing and quantifying the cerebral hydraulics of the central nervous system, the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which circulates throughout the brain and vertebral column at the rate of 32 quarts per day. This imaging and quantifying of the dynamics of this vital life-sustaining physiology of the body’s neurologic system has been made possible first by FONAR’s introduction of the MRI and now by this latest works-in-progress method for quantifying CSF in all the normal positions of the body, particularly in its upright flow against gravity. Patients with whiplash or other neck injuries are among those who will benefit from this new understanding.

FONAR’s primary source of income and growth is attributable to its wholly-owned diagnostic imaging management subsidiary, Health Management Company of America (HMCA) www.hmca.com.

FONAR’s substantial list of patents includes recent patents for its technology enabling full weight-bearing MRI imaging of all the gravity sensitive regions of the human anatomy, especially the brain, extremities and spine. It includes its newest technology for measuring the Upright cerebral hydraulics of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of the central nervous system. FONAR’s UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI is the only scanner licensed under these patents.

UPRIGHT® and STAND-UP® are registered trademarks. The Inventor of MR Scanning™, CSP™,Multi-Position™, UPRIGHT RADIOLOGY™, The Proof is in the Picture™, pMRI™,  CSF Videography™,  and Dynamic™ are trademarks of FONAR Corporation.
