We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for a local homeomorphism defined on an open, connected subset of a Euclidean space to be globally one-to-one and, at the same time, for the image to be convex. Among the applications we give a practical sufficiency test for invertibility for twice differentiable local diffeomorphisms defined on a ball.
