[And here comes his professional medical opinion.]
Yes... I'm going to tentatively say yes.
You see, Miss Nami, there is some diagnostic equipment in the Dome that uses other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum for scanning, but to kill the parasite eating her memories... I believe it's going to take actual visible light. Brain tissue is quite dense, but not impermeable to something being shined through. It's just going to take more time to get all the tissues lit up.
And based on what's available here, I think Hyt would be the best option. Certainly the least invasive.
[He raises a hand though.]
I'm going to want to consult with Miss Raine, though, if Miss Sayo consents to having this done. I know she's been responsible for a lot of Miss Sayo's care in the past. As well, if this is done, there's several things that will be needed. As much information on the nature of the parasite in her mind - I'm concerned it might not go quietly if I try to kill it, and I don't know what that would mean for her. I have a pact with Hyt, and I'll preform the procedure, but I need at least another medical practitioner present to monitor Miss Sayo while this is being done.
That and a way to confirm the thing is dead. I don't know if my instruments will pick up the parasite to begin with. [It is a mushi. Does a mushi show on a MRI scan?] So if there's a person in the village who can tell, it would be helpful.
