Zeev, PMFJI, but in reply to your question about Fonar/ANMR, I should point out that at one point I orchestrated some interchange of ideas from the MAMO thread to the FONAR thread. Luis very kindly offered lots of ideas to the Fonarians and he was basically given "the bum's rush" for holding views that did not fit the "Fonar view". Fonar stock will not move until there is a clear sense of what the company DOES. Does it sell to doctors? Does it sell doctors? Or, does it sue doctors for using pirated technology? If doctors are indeed the market, then fonar has to do a better job of wooing them back.

As for mammo MRI on the Fonar Quad, I think it is not a great system, Fonarian's opinions to the contrary. That is why I think the RSNA will see a new dedicated breast system from Fonar. THAT will compete with ANMR's machine. However, the big problem with all magnets at field strengths less than 1.5T is the poor capacity to suppress signal from fat. Some ANMR thread members seem to think this is not a problem for ANMR but they are wrong (HI LUIS).

Best regards.
