In general any pressurized gas container is "empty" when the pressure inside is equal to ambient air pressure. There is still gas in the container, but not enough pressure to expell the gas.

Medical oxygen tanks should never be allowed to go below 200psi. The tank is considered empty at this point and should be replaced.

What is used to test a tank for oxygen content?

If it is supposed to be an oxygen tank, the amount of oxygen remaining is usually determined by weighing the tank (on some scales with enough capacity to measure such a weight) and then subtracting the weight of the empty tank (the tare weight) which should be recorded before the tank was filled. If it is a matter of testing whether any oxygen is in a tank that contains a mixture of substances, then you'd probably need to take a sample and run it through something like a mass spectrometer or a gas chromatograph calibrated to look for that substance.

Can an oxygen can be half empty?

Gases expand to fill the container that they are in. If you had a tank of oxygen and let half of it out, you would have half the amount of oxygen you started with. However, since the half of the oxygen that remained spread out to fill the container, there won't be empty space.
