The results of the research, conducted by pharmacist Diogo Noin de Oliveira as part of his PhD studies at Unicamp&#8217;s School of Medical Sciences with Professor Rodrigo Ramos Catharino as his advisor, was published in <em><i>PLOS ONE<\/i><\/em> on March 4, 2014. \u201cA software program in the equipment marks the location to be analyzed.
