Morphology

reimage = image (transparent) = re + image

This is a standard use of 're-' meaning 'again' added to the verb 'image'.

Etymology

Reimage is built from re- meaning 'again' and image meaning 'picture' or 'photo'. So to reimage something in medicine is to 'take a new picture' or scan of it to check for changes.
