“We are honoured to continue our partnership with the US Army to further advance point of care injury management of brain health.”

“This work will also significantly impact civilian versions of the technology, allowing for further advancement of our Lucid System in the pre-hospital or EMS setting.”

The system is expected to be operated as a single, portable unit, while requiring minimal training and maintenance.

Work under the contract will be supported by the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command.

Neural Analytics intends to continue to supply the system to the DoD upon completing development of the assessment device, as well as commercialise the technology into its civilian brain health platforms.
