"I am incredibly excited to join this talented organization that has the potential to make a profound impact on global health care," stated Dr. Todd Fruchterman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Butterfly Network, Inc. "Butterfly allows people to think differently about the value of ultrasound as a critical and integrated part of the full patient journey. By making ultrasound more accessible and deployable across a variety of care settings, we have the opportunity to expand the use cases of ultrasound and impact disease interception, helping clinicians make more informed decisions to take action earlier. As we further develop our roadmap, we plan to partner with our customers to expand into novel market applications including chronic disease management, which impacts more than 100 million patients in the United States alone."
