Why Butterfly iQ+ Vet
Cost Effective
This device is cost-effective, replacing multiple traditional ultrasound machines with a single, versatile probe.
Interface
The unique Ultrasound-on-Chip™ technology and intuitive mobile app allows you to quickly access optimized presets for the applications you need.
Versatility
Its versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of medical specialties, including emergency medicine, cardiology, and pain lameness.
Accessibility
It makes ultrasound technology accessible in remote locations making this the perfect field ultrasound for Researchers and Wildlife Veterinarians.
Quality
It offers Unparalleled imaging quality, also in remote locations.
Outcome
With real-time results, veterinarians can make faster decisions, ultimately improving outcomes.
The innovative Needle Viz™ tool is now available to veterinarians within five clinical presets (Bladder, Musculoskeletal, Musculoskeletal Equine, Small Organ, and Vascular). The ability to visualize needles in-plane will help veterinarians perform more confident fine needle aspirates, and quickly place lines and injections with greater certainty in emergency care situations.
“What struck me the most at first was its versatility and how easy and intuitive the software was to use. Going from cardiac ultrasound to rule out pericardial effusion in a dog, to musculoskeletal imaging in horses to diagnose ligamentous injuries, or even using it as ultrasound guidance to perform a cystocentesis on a tiger.”
Valentin Janvier, DVM, DACVR
Clinical Instructor, Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine
“The Butterfly iQ Vet represents a level of accessibility and affordability never before available to veterinary medicine. For the first time ever, small clinics, rural veterinary practices, and shelter medicine programs will have the opportunity to offer high-level ultrasound imaging to their clients and patients.”
SallyAnne L. DeNotta, DVM, PhD, DACVIM
Clinical Assistant Professor, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Florida
“The ability to obtain high quality abdominal and musculoskeletal images with the same probe is unique and improves the efficiency of workflow tremendously.”
Tim Ober, DVM
John R Steele & Associates, Team Veterinarian, United States Olympic Show Jumping Team
“Butterfly literally wowed me with its capabilities -- all the way from superficial tendon imaging through needle guided injections and deep structures like the hip joint. Amazing power and resolution that even cuts through some hairy horses without necessarily clipping. Instant gratification, for sure.”
Nick Kleider DVM, DACVSMR, ISELP certified
Kleider Veterinary Services
“Big fancy systems are always so intimidating to new learners but with the Butterfly iQ Vet, the platform is intuitive, the presets are already there, and they already have all the technology they need to be ready to use it if they have an iPad or iPhone. I am excited to use this in my courses so that the students can become familiar enough with basic echocardiographic imaging to confidently and correctly use this day 1 as a DVM.”
