The paper contains introductory of investigation of different biological structures and their phantoms carried aut by using the UTT method. The otained images of internal structure cross-sections were compared with images obtained by means of classical ultrasonic reflection methods. The results of tis analysis allow us to conclude that investigations using UTTenable obtaning more information aboute the internal structure of the investigated object than ultrasonic investigations consisting in visualising differences of acoustic impedances. In addition, UTT enables both qualitative and quantitive measurement.
