Connectomics is a field of neuroscience that analyzes neuronal connections. A connectome complete map system, comprising all connections between its structures. The term "connectome" close to the word "genome" and implies completeness connections, in same way as genome listing nucleotide sequences. goal connectomics create representation brain's wiring. Such believed increase our understanding how functional brain states emerge from their underlying anatomical structure. Furthermore, it can provide important information for cure dysfunctions like schizophrenia or autism. In this paper, we review current state-of-the-art visualization image processing techniques describe some remaining challenges.
