Why abnormalities of the heart is better detected by ausculation rather than electrocardiography?

with electrocardiography and auscultation different abnormalities can be detected. For example, ecg can show abnormal rythms (due to the damage to the conductive tissue or high level of potassium). But cardiac mummurs can only be heard (they're because of valvular problems)

How can a heart murmur affect an ECG?
It won't. But in the long term the murmur (depending on which valve is affected) will cause hypertrophy of cardiac muscles for the different ventricles/atria. And the hypertrophy will be detected by the ECG because it will change the cardiac axis. Murmurs are easily heard using a stethoscope so and ECG isn't useful. An ECG monitors the electric impulses of the heart muscle - so better to see heart blocks, infarcts, hypertrophy, AF, SVT etc

You need special optics to focus infra-red. The longer wavelengths do not focus at the same point (they are bent less by refraction). Mirror optics are better.
