The purpose of this study to identify internal structural defects hidden from view within tree trunks and probability internal decay in standing trees Tilia cordata in Summer, Garden Mikhailovsky Garden and Garden of the (Engineers’ Castle) using an ultrasonic tomographic technique (Arbotom ®). Ten Tilia cordata trees were examined with an ultrasonic instrument Arbotom 2D software (Rinn Tech, Germany). Were examined The interrelationships between the age of a tree, the ultrasonic velocity. Two-dimensional images of the tree samples were constructed using (Arbotom ® software). The results show very promising possibilities of applications these techniques.
