Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The anterior surface of the heart is best viewed by ECG leads V1-V4. These leads are positioned over the precordial area on the front of the chest and provide a frontal view of the heart. Leads II, III, aVF primarily view the inferior surface of the heart. Leads I and aVL view the lateral surface of the left ventricle. Lead aVR is an augmented limb lead and does not directly view any particular surface of the heart.
