A single-probe ultrasound for whole-body assessment that plugs into your smart device, and fits in your pocket. Butterfly iQ+ is built for immediate MSK diagnostic evaluations and procedural guidance whenever you need it.
Butterfly iQ+ helps provide confidence for procedural guidance thanks to its high-fidelity B-mode, world’s first POCUS Biplane Imaging™ as well as Needle Viz™ developed specifically for MSK procedural support.
Ultrasound is a valuable tool for interventional procedures such as joint aspiration/injections, hydro-dissection techniques, and regenerative medicine procedures. Evidence suggests that ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection can increases efficacy1 over so-called “blind” injections and and can therefore contribute to improve patient outcomes2.
Ultrasound assessment using Butterfly iQ+ can contribute to a clinician's ability to rapidly identify the extent of injury, facilitating early therapeutic intervention. Ultrasound is rapidly becoming the primary diagnostic tool in traumatic, inflammatory and degenerative soft tissue conditions3. It can be used to support clinical evaluation of sprains, strains, tears, trapped nerves, arthritis and other musculoskeletal conditions. It has been suggested it should be included in initial injury evaluation, even in injuries traditionally limited to MRI assessment, such as ACL injury4. This can directly inform return-to-play decisions, monitor injuries over time and track rehabilitative status.
“Point-of-care ultrasound is cost-effective, easy to learn, and can be rapidly performed by a physician on the sideline. Butterfly iQ+ is immediately accessible for fast investigation of athletes with a suspected fractures and soft tissue injuries, and can accurately determine who can be managed conservatively versus those who require expedited care”

Top critical care clinicians* discuss their experience with POCUS in their ICUs this year, with the rising incidence of COVID-19 critical care admissions.
Enables you to focus more on patients, and less on probe integrity and readiness.
Provides you more control to get the views needed confidently and quickly.
Allows the you to get the insights they need for regional anesthesia and beyond such as cardiopulmonary and gastric contents assessment.
Now with the world’s first POCUS Biplane Imaging, it is possible to see the short and long axis of your needle simultaneously in real-time.
