And the idea here was really for diagnosis -- there are lots of times in the diagnosis of brain disorders when you would like to be able to look at the neural activity beneath the skull and being able to drill these microscopic holes would make that much easier for the patient.
A ideia era para o diagnóstico - muitas vezes, no diagnóstico de doenças cerebrais, gostaríamos de poder observar a atividade dos neurónios por baixo do crânio e poder fazer estes furos microscópicos. Seria muito mais fácil para o doente.
