An image scanning system for tissue slides comprises a microscope, an image capture element, a splitter module and a shading module, wherein the microscope is used for carrying a plurality of tissue slides. The light pass through each of the tissue slides is able to enter the splitter module selectively by the shading module, and the light is guided into the image capture element via a plurality of splitters of the splitter module to make each of the tissue slides be imaged on the image capture element respectively for image scanning.

An interferometer comprises a light source unit, a first splitter, a reference beam unit and a detection unit. The light source unit provides a laser beam. The first splitter receives the laser beam from the light source unit and splits the laser beam into a first beam and a second beam. The reference beam unit comprises a frequency shifter, a stopper and a spherical mirror. A center of the frequency shifter is located on a curvature center of the spherical mirror, the first beam traveling from the first splitter to the frequency shifter, the frequency shifter splitting the first beam into a diffraction beam and a zero-order beam, wherein the diffraction beam travels to the spherical mirror, reflected by the spherical mirror toward the frequency shifter, passing the frequency shifter to become a reference beam, and the zero-order beam is stopped by the stopper. The detection unit receives the reference beam from the reference beam unit.
