Exhibit 31.1

                                  CERTIFICATION

I, Raymond V. Damadian, certify that:

1.   I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K of Fonar Corporation;

2.   Based on my  knowledge,  this report  does not contain any untrue statement
     of a material fact or omit to state a material fact  necessary  to make the
     statements  made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements
     were  made, not  misleading  with respect  to the period  covered  by  this
     report;

3.   Based on my  knowledge,  the  financial  statements,  and  other  financial
     information, included in this annual report, fairly present in all material
     respects the financial  condition,  results of operations and cash flows of
     the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this annual report.

4.   I am responsible for establishing and maintaining  disclosure  controls and
     procedures,  as defined in Exchange Act Rules  13a-15(e)  and 15d-15(e) for
     the registrant and I have:

     a)   Designed  such  disclosure  controls  and  procedures,  or caused such
          disclosure   controls  and   procedures   to  be  designed   under  my
          supervision,  to ensure  that  material  information  relating  to the
          registrant,  including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to
          me by others within those entities,  particularly during the period in
          which this report is being prepared;

     b)   Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or cause such
          internal  control  over financial  reporting  to be designed  under my
          supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding  reliability of
          financial reporting and  the preparation  of financial statements  for
          external purposes  in accordance  with generally accepted accounting
          principles;

     c)   Evaluated the  effectiveness of the registrant's  disclosure  controls
          and procedures  and presented in this report my conclusions  about the
          effectiveness of the disclosure  controls and procedures as of the end
          of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

     d)   Disclosed  in this  report  any  change in the  registrant's  internal
          control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's
          most recent fiscal  quarter (the  registrant's  fourth  quarter in the
          case  of  an  annual  report)  that  has  materially  affected,  or is
          reasonably  likely to materially  affect,  the  registrant's  internal
          control over financial reporting; and

5.   I have disclosed,  based on my most recent  evaluation of internal  control
     over  financial  reporting,  to the  registrant's  auditors  and the  audit
     committee of  registrant's  board of directors (or persons  performing  the
     equivalent function):

     a)   all significant  deficiencies  and material  weakness in the design or
          operation  of internal  control  over  financial  reporting  which are
          reasonably  likely to  adversely  affect the  registrant's  ability to
          record, process, summarize and report financial data; and

     b)   any fraud, whether or not material,  that involves management or other
          employees who have a  significant  role in the  registrant's  internal
          control over financial reporting.
