Here are some points I have learned about VistA imaging.

TIU EXTERNAL DATA LINK (file 8925.91)
 1  0;1                .01  DOCUMENT                        <-Pntr  [RP8925']
 2  0;2                .02  IMAGE                            <-Pntr  [P2005']
 3  1;1                  1  LINKED DATA OBJECT                            [F]
 field .01 will point to a specific TIU document
 field .02 can link to an entry in the IMAGE file
 field 1 can hold the path to a fileserver (e.g. i:\images\jr042696.bmp, etc.)
IMAGE (file 2005) 
 Holds metadata about stored images

If there in an entry in TIU EXTERNAL DATA LINK, then the corresponding document in CPRS will show a picture icon beside it.
