you cannot clear browser cache.the only idea is declare a session variable in c# code in page load and set its value is 1 at the very first time

if (!IsPostBack)
            {
Session["refresh"]="1"
}

you will need to set session variable in image upload button event Session["refresh"]="1" then create a refresh button .in the button event do the following thats all.after completeing your upload,click on the refresh button.then it work as ctrl+f5 button.if you not set the session value 0 in refresh button event the last event is again takesplace.if you enter a value in database,the same task takesplace if you not set session variable 0.

   if(Session["refresh"].ToString()=="1")
   {
      Response.Write("<script type='text/javascript'>locaton.reload()</script>");
      Session["refresh"]="0";
    }

No. You can set expiration time to zero, but this can be overridden in browser preferences.

If you really need that the browser don't cache image, generate a random number and place it in the url
