  • Abstract
    Our knowledge of the cause of sounds arising in the heart has depended on indirect evidence of events of the cardiac cycle in man and direct observations made in other animals. The accessibility of the human heart for study in this era of cardiac surgery now permits the direct observation made in animals to be repeated in man and the indirect correlations to be confirmed.
