NIST Method may find elusive flaws in medical implants.

After years of effort by manufacturers and researchers, NIST and collaborators have demonstrated a nondestructive approach for detecting cracks in ceramic capacitors before they go bad. NIST crack-detection method relies on acoustic measurements at frequencies much higher than humans can hear. New technique may help prevent failures in medical devices such as cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators and also avert electronics failures in satellites and other spacecraft.
