The /Mount-Image command also allows you to mount a VHD file to service it (install updates) while the other command only supports WIM files.
DISM.exe /Mount-Image /ImageFile:C:\test\images\myimage.vhd /Index:1 /MountDir:C:\test\offline /ReadOnly
The reason why both options show up is that the /Mount-Image was added in Windows 8, while the original DISM command was introduced in Windows 7. Removing the /Mount-Wim would break older scripts which were written for Windows 7 but would still works for Windows 8.
