The photos I take using my device's camera as stored in File.DirRootExternal/DCIM/Camera folder. Yours, probably the same way. You can then do this:
Dim imageview1 as Imageview 'in Globals

B4X:

Sub imageview1_Click
     imageview1.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirRootExternal & "/DCIM/Camera","photoname.jpg"))
End Sub

There is no standard path to sd cards. There is a standard path to the primary external storage which you can retrieve with File.DirRootExternal as posted above.

i tried this code and it is working for images saved in the SD card

B4X:

 ImageView1.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirRootExternal & "/external_sd/DCIM/Camera","name.jpg"))

and the code Mahares is needed when you load the image from phone memory
