Nightingale EOS has developed laser-based technology, called Beam Profile Reflectometry (BPR), which is able to measure the characteristics of the thin coatings applied to medical implants such as cardiac stents and replacement joints.

BPR, standard within the semiconductor industry, is a unique laser-based measurement technique that, unlike other technologies is able to make direct, deterministic measurements of thickness and composition of transparent coatings using a single non-destructive measurement.
