Set width & height with dp :

imageview.getLayoutParams().height = (int) getResources().getDimension(R.dimen.imageview_height);
imageview.getLayoutParams().width = (int) getResources().getDimension(R.dimen.imageview_width);

In your dimens.xml provide values for the keys :

<dimen name="imageview_width">50dp</dimen> 
<dimen name="imageview_height">50dp</dimen>
