Sure.  Use this as the only source file, "eg.c":

/**\file eg.c
\brief Example source.
*/

/**\defgroup testgrp Test Group
\brief This is sentence one.  This is sentence two. */

/**\ingroup testgrp
\brief Blah blah.
\details These are the details. */
void whatever (void) {
};

Place that in a directory with the attached Doxyfile (this is the
default produced by my 'doxygen -g -s').  Run 'doxygen' and look at 
'html/modules.html':

<td class="desc">This is sentence one. This is sentence two </td>

Notice the period after "two" has been removed. Again, if I place an
extra period in the source to compensate, that extra period will
reappear in other places where the brief description is reproduced
(e.g., together with the detailed description).


Sincerely, MK
