1. A method for acquiring an image of an object using an optical coherence tomography system, the method comprising the steps of: coupling light generated by an illumination light source into an interferometer; irradiating the object with light emitted by the interferometer and feeding back light reflected by the object into the interferometer; detecting the light fed back into the interferometer; deriving an image of the object from the detected light; examining whether information relating to the object or a portion of the object is available to the optical coherence tomography system, and when an optical coherence tomography image acquisition session of the optical coherence tomography system is running and the information is available to the optical coherence tomography system: indicating to a user that the information is available; and requesting the user for an input whether the information shall be stored in a file and assigned to or correlated with the image of the object; and depending on the input from the user, assigning or correlating the image of the object to or with, respectively, the file containing the information relating to the object.
