ST. JOSEPH, Mo. - Clipper Distributing LLC and Butterfly Network, Inc. (NYSE:BFLY) announced Monday a partnership to commercialize Butterfly’s handheld ultrasound devices for veterinary practices.

The agreement will make Butterfly iQ+ Vet, a handheld ultrasound imaging system, more widely available to veterinarians across the United States. The device is designed for multi-species imaging at the point of care, utilizing Butterfly’s proprietary Ultrasound-on-Chip technology.
