	I am looking for a laser scanning system that is capable of measuring
	the surface area of a titanium implant used in hip surgery.  This implant
	resembles the femur (of course) and therefore has a large amount of curved
	surface area, which makes scanning difficult.  The area for the scan is
	about 5x2x2 inches and I'd like the system to have a resolution on the
	order of 1/1000 of an inch.  Does anyone out there know of any companies
	that might be able to help me ?

	I know I can build my own, but time is of the essence.  Please reply to
	me since I do not read the news all that often.

	Thanks,
