Heart Sounds: Causes & Methods | Cardiovascular System | Humans | Biology

Introduction to Heart Sound: There are two classical sounds of heart in humans, known as the first and the second sounds (Fig. 7.56). They can be easily detected with a Stethoscope. Two other sounds have also been described - the third and the fourth - which, though diffi­cult to detect clinically, are constantly found in graphic records. The first and [...]
