Earlier this year, Dr. John Martin was using a new portable ultrasound device called the Butterfly iQ, a scanner the size of an electric razor that can display black-and-white imagery of the body on a paired iPhone, and ended up finding a cancerous mass after noticing discomfort in his throat.

The ultrasound device comes from a startup called Butterfly Network, and is due to go on sale in the US in 2018.

Compared to standard ultrasound machines, which are both large and very expensive, the Butterfly iQ is handy and cheap.

The handheld device is designed to be used in emergency situations, like in an ambulance, at home, or to help diagnose a child’s injury.
