        LARGEST ORTHOPAEDIC PRACTICE IN CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA PURCHASES
                    FONAR UPRIGHT(R) MULTI-POSITION(TM) MRI

Durham, North Carolina, November 18, 2008 - FONAR Corporation (NASDAQ-FONR), the
Inventor of MR Scanning, announced the sale of its UPRIGHT(R) Multi-Position(TM)
MRI to Triangle  Orthopaedic  Associates,  P.A. (TOA),  headquartered in Durham,
North Carolina.

TOA, the largest  orthopaedic  practice in central  North  Carolina,  strives to
provide cutting-edge care in a convenient,  patient-centered environment. In its
commitment  to a  regional  orthopaedic  Center of  Excellence,  TOA has built a
skilled team of physicians on the  forefront of their  specialty,  an integrated
network of 13 clinics  and  therapy  centers,  a uniquely  specialized  surgical
hospital  and an active  clinical  research  program.  Continually  updating and
advancing  services and  technologies for better patient care is critical to the
success of this vision.

Writing  to  the  North  Carolina   Department  of  Health  and  Human  Services
Certificate of Need Section,  TOA's  president,  Thomas A. Dimmig,  M.D. stated,
"The most recent and exciting  development is the unique UPRIGHT(R) MRI scanner.
UPRIGHT(R)  MRI  technology  enables  physicians  to image  patients  in various
weight-bearing  positions in order to view tissue and analyze the spine, joints,
or bones  under the  strain of normal  use.  This  exclusive  technology  is not
available on  conventional  MRI  scanners.  As a  physician,  I have a long-term
vision of an orthopaedic  center of excellence  that will allow our patients the
convenience  of  receiving  all of  their  care at one  location  in a  seamless
patient-oriented   environment.  To  achieve  this  goal,  Triangle  Orthopaedic
Associates  desires to have a fixed  multi-position  MRI scanner  located in our
Spine Center in Durham."

The new  FONAR  UPRIGHT(R)  Multi-Position(TM)  MRI is  intended  for use in all
patients requiring imaging of any  musculoskeletal  condition,  from shoulder to
hip, hand to foot or neck to back.  Its ability to image  patients in a standing
or sitting position is unique in that it offers a  weight-bearing,  true-to-life
view of the body,  that is also  frequently  more  comfortable  for the patient.
Furthermore,  the FONAR MRI is an "open"  design,  making it  possible  to image
patients who are obese or claustrophobic.

TOA is an active  clinical  research  center  with 15  ongoing  FDA  trials,  10
involving  new  technologies  for  relieving  back and neck pain and  preserving
spinal  function.  Of  particular  interest to the spine  surgeons at TOA is the
potential   for  the   UPRIGHT(R)   Multi-Position(TM)   MRI  to  detect  spinal
abnormalities that are not visible on conventional  recumbent-only MRI scanners.
In this way, the FONAR MRI may play an important  role in the clinical  research
arena.  Additionally,  following  implantation  of  MRI  compatible  orthopaedic
devices,  the field  strength  of the  FONAR  UPRIGHT(R)  MRI may  allow  better
visualization of the surrounding  anatomy than many current MRI scanners,  which
is of particular importance to spine surgeons.
