What you are looking for is probably this:

ImageView myImageView;
myImageView = mDialog.findViewById(R.id.image_id);
String src = "imageFileName"

int drawableId = this.getResources().getIdentifier(src, "drawable", context.getPackageName())
popupImageView.setImageResource(drawableId);

Let me know if this was helpful :)
