These sales are via Compumedics\u2019 long-term Chinese distributor for the company\u2019s brain research technology.<\/p>\n<p>The MEG systems will be shipped to both Tsinghua and Tianjin Universities in FY25, due to the lead times associated with production of the MEG systems.<\/p>\n<p>One order is for two single-helmet MEG systems, and the other is for a dual-helmet MEG system. Both will be configured for hyperscanning (measurement of two subjects simultaneously to study their interaction).<\/p>\n<p>Compumedics expects to receive deposits this week securing the two new orders, with funds tied to shipment and installation due later in FY24 and then through FY25.<\/p>\n<p>The company says these contracts further establish Compumedics in the large and fast-growing Chinese neurosciences marketplace. Both universities\u2019 selected Compumedics after a thorough technical review.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very pleased to receive these two additional MEG orders from China, which we regard as very important early adopters of our unique MEG technology offering,\u201d said Compumedics\u2019 executive chairman, David Burton.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhilst the business opportunity has taken longer than expected, we are now firmly on the path to commercialisation of our innovative MEG offering over the foreseeable future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Share prices today:<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><span class=\"mce_SELRES_start\"><\/span>\u00a0<br \/>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/stockhead.com.au\/health\/asx-health-stocks-island-pharma-advances-anti-viral-study-compumedics-scores-9-3m-order-in-china\/\">ASX Health Stocks: Island Pharma advances anti-viral study;
