                       FONAR Receives Letter from NASDAQ

MELVILLE,  NEW  YORK,  January  14, 2011 - FONAR Corporation (NASDAQ-FONR), The
Inventor of MR Scanning(TM), today  announced  that  on  January  11, 2011, the
Company  received a determination letter from the Listing Qualifications  Staff
of The NASDAQ  Stock  Market  LLC  (the  "Staff  Determination")  notifying the
Company  that,  based  upon the Company's non-compliance with the $2.5  million
stockholders' equity requirement set forth in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(b) as of
January 7, 2011, the Company's  securities  were  subject to delisting from The
NASDAQ Capital Market unless the Company requests a  hearing  before the NASDAQ
Listing Qualifications Panel (the "NASDAQ Panel").

The  Company plans to timely request a hearing before the NASDAQ  Panel,  which
will stay  any  action  with respect to the Staff Determination until the Panel
renders a decision subsequent  to  the hearing.  There can be no assurance that
the Panel will grant the Company's request for continued listing.

As previously announced, on October  14, 2010, the Company received notice from
the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Staff that its stockholders' equity was below
the minimum requirement for continued  listing  on  The  NASDAQ Capital Market.
Pursuant  to  the  Listing  Rules,  the  Company requested and was  granted  an
extension, through January 7, 2011.  The Company  did not meet the terms of the
extension  by  January 7, 2011, which resulted in the  issuance  of  the  Staff
Determination.
