Brace yourself for a fun challenge: build a photorealistic 3D renderer from scratch! In just a couple of weeks, build a ray tracer that renders beautiful scenes with shadows, reflections, refraction effects, and subjects composed of various graphics primitives: spheres, cubes, cylinders, triangles, and more. With each chapter, implement another piece of the puzzle and move the renderer forward. Use whichever language and environment you prefer, and do it entirely test-first, so you know it's correct.

In Imager, the first book of the Imager Portfolio, we met Rhennthyl, an apprentice portrait artist whose life was changed by a disastrous fire. But the blaze that took his master's life and destroyed his livelihood revealed a secret power previously dormant in Rhenn; the power of imaging, the ability to shape matter using thought. With some trouble, he adapts to the controlled life of an imager.By Imager's Challenge, Rhenn has become a liaison to the local law forces. He finds himself in direct conflict with both authorities and national politics as he tries to uphold the law and do his best by the people of his home city.Now, in Imager's Intrigue, Rhenn has come into his own. He has a wife and a young child, and a solid career as an imager. But he has made more than one enemy during his journey from apprentice painter to master imager, and even his great powers won't allow him to escape his past.

This book constitutes three challenges that were held in conjunction with the 23rd International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2020, in Lima, Peru, in October 2020*: the Anatomical Brain Barriers to Cancer Spread: Segmentation from CT and MR Images Challenge, the Learn2Reg Challenge, and the Thyroid Nodule Segmentation and Classification in Ultrasound Images Challenge. The 19 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected form numerous submissions. The ABCs challenge aims to identify the best methods of segmenting brain structures that serve as barriers to the spread of brain cancers and structures to be spared from irradiation, for use in computer assisted target definition for glioma and radiotherapy plan optimization. The papers of the L2R challenge cover a wide spectrum of conventional and learning-based registration methods and often describe novel contributions. The main goal of the TN-SCUI challenge is to find automatic algorithms to accurately segment and classify the thyroid nodules in ultrasound images. *The challenges took place virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
