Dow Jones Description
FONAR® was incorporated in 1978, making it the first, oldest, and most experienced MRI manufacturer in the industry. FONAR introduced the world's first commercial MRI in 1980, and went public in 1981. Since its inception, FONAR has installed many hundreds of MRI scanners worldwide. Their current product line includes the FONAR UPRIGHT? Multi-Position? MRI and the FONAR 360?. The FONAR UPRIGHT? Multi-Position? MRI (also known as the Stand-Up? MRI), is the only whole-body MRI that performs Multi-Position? imaging (mpMRI?) and scans patients in numerous weight-bearing positions, i.e. standing, sitting, in flexion and extension, as well as the conventional lie-down position. An additional benefit of the FONAR UPRIGHT? Multi-Position? MRI is its non-claustrophobia. The only thing in front of the patient's face is a 42-inch flat screen TV. With nearly one half million patients scanned, the patient-friendly FONAR UPRIGHT? Multi-Position? MRI has a near zero claustrophobic rejection rate by patients. As one FONAR user puts it, "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 the 42 inch flat screen TV. FONAR is headquartered on Long Island, New York, and has approximately 400 employees.
