We present a continuous-wave, post selection-free implementation of a widefield optical multipass microscope. It can be operated with a spatially and temporally incoherent light source, and requires no active outcoupling or exotic detection schemes. This implementation is capable of deterministically interrogating a sample sequentially up to $m=4$ times. Through multiple interrogations, a linear enhancement in phase shift and absorption imparted by the sample can be achieved, fundamentally increasing the signal-to-noise of the obtainable images.
