Surface anatomy of auscultatory areas of heart valves
Channel: Human Anatomy Education
Date: 2013-12-18

The video clarifies that all the valves of the heart are grouped behind the sternum, this is the anatomical location; however, the anatomical location is not of clinical interest. The sounds produced by these valves are best heard on the chest wall at sites other than their anatomical relation.
The aortic valve, pulmonary valve, mitral valve, and tricuspid valve.
This video is part of a playlist of short videos which are intended to combine multiple choice questions answering experience with an improved understanding of anatomy.

Considering the descriptive nature of anatomy, and the importance of illustrations in grasping and remembering anatomical relationships, diagrams are added. However, they should not be expected to accompany questions in an actual examination setting. In this case, the student should visualize these relations in his/her mind's eye before attempting to answer the question.
