A system for assisting endoscope tracking used to track a travel path of an endoscope probe within an organ includes three position sensors and three distance sensors which are surrounding an endoscope probe, and a computing device. The said three position sensors respectively sense a first coordinate, a second coordinate and a third coordinate relative to a navigation origin. The said three distance sensors respectively sense a first distance, a second distance and a third distance apart from an inner wall of the organ. The computing device obtains a position coordinate of the endoscope probe relative to the navigation origin according to the first coordinate, the second coordinate and the third coordinate. The computing device further determines whether to send a warning message according to the first distance, the second distance and the third distance.

System and method for assisting endoscope tracking

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.
