Wiggers obviously is in need of some updates but should not be ridiculed quite so quickly.

This version of the diagram is terribly inaccurate and generalized. A proper version of it is much needed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.239.68.106 (talk) 13:52, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Wiggers Diagram is undoubtedly a work of genius. The unavoidable truth behind the controversy regarding its origin stems to a fellowship Dr Wiggers spent with Dr Otto Frank in 1912. What he brought back home with him has remained a nightmare for legal intellectual property experts ever since. I think Dr. Wiggers fully understood what he was doing when he purloined the work of Dr. Frank. The work since then delineating sounds from volumetrics and coaptation have helped many informed listeners for many years. @Lbeben lbeben 00:36, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

Axes in the diagram may be realigned towards the center to match the long and short axes utilized in contemporary imaging of the heart. Long and short axes are beholden to compliance and applied physics. Posit long axis physics are governed by the law of Robert Hooke, while short axis physics are governed by the law of Pierre LaPlace. Centering of the axes readily allows application of volumetric data.
