What are the surface markings, where the sounds produced by the following valves of the heart can be prominently heard?

Mitral Valve
Tricuspid Valve
Aortic Valves

  #2

Mitral valve: LSB, 5th ICS
Tricuspid valve: LSB, 3-5th ICS
Aortic valve: RSB 2nd ICS

  #3

Mitral is not really LSB, yes to the left of the sternum....it is half an inch medial or we could even say in line with Mid clavicular line in the left side of chest.
