1. A computer-implemented method for generating an image series, comprising: receiving at least one medical image of a patient acquired by a medical imaging device and recorded onto a recording device; receiving identification information associated with the at least one medical image when acquisition of the at least one medical image is detected by an image-activated circuitry, the identification information including an acquisition time of the at least one medical image and an identifier for the recording device; receiving at least one patient image of the patient acquired by a camera and identification information associated with the at least one patient image when the acquisition of the at least one medical image is detected, the identification information including an acquisition time of the patient image and the identifier for the recording device; associating the at least one patient image and the at least one medical image based on the identification information; and generating an image series that includes the at least one patient image and the at least one medical image.
