If you embedded the image you could use the reference to Bitmap.bitmapdata.

package
{
    import flash.display.Bitmap;
    import flash.display.Sprite;

    public class Main extends Sprite
    {

        [Embed(source="assets/image.png")]
        private var embeddedImage : Class;


        public function Main()
        {
            var image : Bitmap = new embeddedImage();
            //addChild(image);

            // reference
            var bitmapData : BitmapData = image.bitmapData.clone();
        }
    }
}

To display a BitmapData object use the Bitmap class. Then you can set the bitmap as the source of an image.

var imageBmp:Bitmap = new Bitmap(myBitmapData);
var displayImage:Image = new Image();
displayImage.source = imageBmp;
myCanvas.addChild(displayImage);

You could also draw the pixels of your bitmap data directly onto the Graphics object of the Canvas using beginBitmapFill.

var g:Graphics = myCanvas.graphics;
g.beginBitmapFill(myBitmapData);
g.drawRect(0, 0, myBitmapData.width, myBitmapData.height);
