Use:
TV,IMAGE,X_POSITION,Y_POSITION,XSIZE=<X_SIZE>,YSIZE=<Y_SIZE >,$
[,/NORMAL,/INCHES,/CENTIMETERS,/DATA]
If you use e.g. a PLOT statement first to define the axes,
then you could use either DATA coordinates or the values in
!P.CLIP in order to make your image fill the plot region
exactly, i.e.,
Plot,x,y,xrange=....
TV,IMAGE,!P.CLIP(0),!P.CLIP(1),XSIZE=!P.CLIP(2)-!P.CLIP(0),$
YSIZE=!P.CLIP(3)-!P.CLIP(1),/DEVICE
