The future of ultrasound for Global Health.
“In a world rife with healthcare disparities yet replete with innovation, there is no longer an excuse for the lack of diagnostic imaging in resource-limited settings. POCUS [point-of-care ultrasound] has changed the landscape.”
— Dr. Nahreen AhmedDivision of Critical Care
University of Pennsylvania
Butterfly iQ+ is designed to dramatically expand the capabilities of practitioners working outside of hospitals in developed areas.
Collect advanced imaging, perform rapid assessments, and guide critical procedures no matter where you are. Share images seamlessly with doctors across the globe for help reading and interpreting scans. Use Butterfly Education tools to empower the next generation of local practitioners.
Global Health organizations are looking for tools that can help them build sustainable healthcare programs in limited-resource settings.
TeleGuidance allows an experienced sonographer to remotely guide and train less-experienced clinicians.
Our in-app and desktop education platform provides modules that teach key clinical applications of POCUS. Don’t just deliver impact; nurture long-lasting transformation.
TeleGuidance is adjunctive and should not be solely relied upon to diagnose or treat COVID-19. USA RX only. Use by novice operators guided by trained practitioners, is permitted under FDA’s COVID-19 public health policies.
These videos, including, but not limited to the text, graphics, images, audio and other material herein (“Videos”) are for informational purposes only and are intended to demonstrate the potential uses of the Butterfly iQ. The Videos are not a substitute for professional clinician training and experience. Clinicians are solely responsible for patient care and for exercising their independent clinical judgement at all times.

Identify differentials for fever, shortness of breath, and abdominal trauma with iQ+—and make quicker care decisions in limited-resource settings.
“From pediatric pneumonia in the mountains of rural Uganda, to maternal health in inner-city Nairobi, and now multifaceted virtual education of MDs in Yemen, Butterfly iQ plays a frontline role with Bridge to Health and our partners in democratizing diagnostics and empowering local healthcare providers to get the right diagnosis.”
— Dr. William CherniakFounder, Bridge to Health
See how iQ is creating emergency-medicine breakthroughs at the border.
Access to antenatal care is shockingly unequal globally¹, as well as within the USA². Studies have demonstrated the improvement in clinical management, treatment determination and procedural application that can be made with local adoption of POCUS³.
POCUS empowers local practitioners to detect breech position and multiple gestations; this alone significantly impacts both maternal and fetal well-being.

Please fill out the form below if you’re interested in joining our Global Health program. Those accepted into the program will be able to purchase Butterfly iQ devices with discounted annual subscription fees. Participants will be required to submit content/media for marketing purposes. Allow 3 weeks for submissions to be reviewed.
Please fill out the Global Health form on our contact page. We will review your project and get back to you within 3 weeks.
If your project is chosen, you will be asked to submit photos and videos of the Butterfly iQ in use. These assets may be used for marketing purposes to highlight your inspiring work and bring awareness to the masses.
We have developed the Butterfly iQ as a tool to enable access to medical imaging in the far corners of the world, but we cannot do it alone. Our Butterfly Global Health partners are dedicated to creating sustainable healthcare in low resource areas. They are the ones on the ground at the last mile, delivering clinical care, setting up ultrasound training programs, and helping those in need.
