The difference depends on whether the images are cached
and what your cache-checking option is set to.
E.g. setting it to Every visit... would be equivalent to Refresh
not having the images cached would be equivalent to Ctrl-F5
setting it to Never with all images cached would mean that
pressing Back would be identical to setting Work Offline
and then requesting its URL.

Use a tracer such as FiddlerTool to see this.
