Mapping the entire neural network in a brain down to the connections of all the functional building blocks, the neurons, was considered an impossible task.&nbsp;&nbsp;Armed by the improvements of synchrotron x-ray imaging, we argue otherwise: Could x-ray techniques be the tool of choice to challenge the animal brain circuitry mapping? Or more technically, is the overall performance adequate?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">We designed an effective strategy based on recent advances of x-ray tomography in resolution and imaging speed, the approach reaches three critical objectives: (1) three-dimensional (3D) imaging with high and isotropic spatial resolution; (2) fast image taking and processing, as required for comprehensive whole-brain mapping within a reasonable time, and (3) multi-scale resolution, to zoom into specific regions of interest. The current performance is orders-of-magnitude faster than any other 3D imaging techniques based on visible light microscopy while with sub-cellular resolution far superior than the medical imaging techniques.&nbsp;&nbsp;This strategy is extensively tested in the last few years by mapping large populations of metal-labeled neurons and their connections in two animal models,&nbsp;<em>Drosophila<\/em>&nbsp;and mouse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">These positive results instigated two additional directions for further improved.
