Significant Highlights during the October – December Quarter:
On October 5, 2011, the Company reported a diagnostic breakthrough in the understanding of the genesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) based on observations made possible by the company’s unique FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI. The press release indicated that the cause of multiple sclerosis may be biomechanical and related to earlier trauma to the neck, which can result in the obstruction of the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which is produced and stored in the central anatomic structures of the brain known as the ventricles. Since the ventricles produce a large volume of CSF each day (500 cc), an obstruction can result in a build-up of pressure within the ventricles, resulting in leakage of the CSF into the surrounding brain tissue. This leakage could be responsible for generating the brain lesions of multiple sclerosis.
The research was published in the journal Physiological Chemistry and Physics and Medical NMR (Sept. 20, 2011, 41: 1-17), titled “The Possible Role of Cranio-Cervical Trauma and Abnormal CSF Hydrodynamics in the Genesis of Multiple Sclerosis.” It was co-authored by FONAR MRI researchers Raymond V. Damadian, M.D., president and chairman of FONAR and FONAR scientist David Chu, PhD. The complete study can be viewed at www.fonar.com/pdf/PCP41_damadian.pdf.
Dr. Damadian said, “We used the UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI to view the flow of cerebrospinal fluid in and out of the brain with the patients scanned Upright and scanned lying down. The UPRIGHT® MRI also revealed that these obstructions were the result of structural deformities of the cervical spine, induced by trauma earlier in life. The findings are based on viewing the real-time flow of cerebrospinal fluid in a series of eight randomly chosen patients with multiple sclerosis. These invaluable dual observations have only been possible since the invention by FONAR of an MRI capable of imaging the patient Upright.” For more information visit: www.fonar.com.
On October 4, 2011, Dr. Damadian announced the study at a Radiology Department Grand Rounds at the University of California San Diego Medical Center. William G. Bradley, Jr., M.D., Ph.D., F.A.C.R., Chairman of the Department of Radiology, and a Professor of Radiology at UCSD School of Medicine, introduced Dr. Damadian to his colleagues at grand rounds. Dr. Bradley said, “Dr. Damadian has shown that 8 patients with MS had degenerative changes in their cervical spines which impinged on the spinal canal and limited the pulsatile, to-and-fro flow of cervical CSF over the cardiac cycle, as demonstrated on UPRIGHT® MRI. His hypothesis that increased resistance to outflow of CSF is linked to the etiology of MS has some similarities to Dr. P. Zamboni’s hypothesis that MS is due to the impeded outflow of venous blood from the brain due to dural sinus stenoses. In both theories, increased resistance to outflow of either CSF or venous blood would be expected to modify the intracranial pressure wave over the cardiac cycle. While both theories need to be further tested with larger controlled studies, it is intriguing that they seem to invoke similar pathologic changes. Whether these changes are etiologic in all cases of MS remains to be tested.”
On November 2, 2011, FONAR reported on a 41-year-old female patient with MS that had been one of the eight patients in the original study. The FONAR UPRIGHT® MRI had found cervical malrotations at the cranio-cervical junction and alterations of CSF flow dynamics which gave rise to CSF fluid leakages into surrounding brain tissue. The CSF leakages visualized were directly connected to the MS lesions visualized on the UPRIGHT® MRI. Dr. Damadian stated, “These new observations have uncovered biomechanical barriers that appear to lead to multiple sclerosis. It is significant that these barriers may be therapeutically addressable.”
The MS patient was treated by Dr. Scott Rosa, with a proprietary protocol using an Atlas Orthogonal (AO) instrument and the FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI. The patient has experienced a significant reduction in symptoms which correlate directly to 28.6% reduction of her CSF pressure on post MRI evaluation. At this time the patient continues to be free of MS symptoms as well as vertigo and vomiting on recumbency. The patient’s care continues being administered by Dr. Rosa.
On November 30, 2011, the Company reported a sale of its UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI to a radiology practice in the western USA. This becomes the 29th state to have a customer purchase the FONAR UPRIGHT® MRI. The FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI has also been sold to Puerto Rico and has been installed in eleven other nations around the world.
The board certified radiologist purchasing the FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI for his practice said he was buying the scanner in order to meet the expressed needs of his sending physicians, principally neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons. They are eager, he said, to achieve the best possible surgical outcomes for their spine surgery patients. Failure to see the full picture could result in the administration of a wrong or insufficient surgical procedure. They consider imaging the spine fully loaded with its normal weight, and in all the upright positions that the spine normally occupies, fundamental to a good surgical outcome for the patient.
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 150 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 only. 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.
