A computer-aided method and system for processing a digital mammogram to identify abnormalities. The system generates a line strength image from at least a portion of the digital mammogram. After identifying first pixel groups of multiple pixels in the line strength image, the system generates a scaled line strength image having multiple pixels from the line strength image. One or more pixels of the scaled line strength image correspond to first pixel groups of the line strength image. Values of the one or more pixels of the scaled line strength image are determined using a first subset of pixels of its corresponding first pixel group, wherein the first subset comprises less than all of the pixels in the first pixel group.
