MATLAB: How to change the resolution of an image produced by imagesc

image processingresolution

How can I change the resolution of the image part of the figure produced by imagesc? I was going to try using imresize but I can't figure out how to make it work. I'm trying to purposefully reduce the quality of a data set as part of a simulation.

If you use imresize() to shrink your image, but it is still bigger than the axes on your screen (for example a 500 by 700 image is being shown on 200 by 300 pixels on your screen, then you will not notice any difference upon display, but you will if you look at the actual variable in the variable inspector. Is that what is happening?
See my Zoom demo, attached. Actually it's an adapted demo personally given to me by the imaging team at the Mathworks.
