**4. Processed material**

The raw material in EBM is powder. Hence, it is reasonable to expect that the processed material contains residual porosity. However, the processed material on EBM is almost 100% dense because of complete local fusion of powder. Experimental results are offered to illustrate the capabilities of EBM in biomedical applications through two widely used materials: Ti6Al4V and CoCr ASTM F75 which are commercially available for processing on EBM. More materials are under development which will be mentioned in the 'Future Developments' section.
