Get Source URI of Image from code behind

I have an Image declared and Source specified in XAML with this code -

<Image x:Name="imgSomeFile" Source="Assets/someFile.png"/>

Is there a way I can access this source URI in the code-behind using only the name of the instance ? I've tried image.Source but that only gives the BitmapImage that the image uses and not the URI.

Use the UriSource property of the BitmapImage you get from the source.

((imgSomeFile).Source as BitmapImage).UriSource.OriginalString
