# imageView

The image view of the table cell.

## Declaration

```swift
var imageView: UIImageView? { get }
```

## Mentioned in

Configuring the cells for your table

## Discussion

Discussion Returns the image view (UIImageView object) of the table view, which initially has no image set. If an image is set, it appears on the left side of the cell, before any label. UITableViewCell creates the image-view object when you create the cell. This property is mutually exclusive with a content configuration. Setting a non-nil value for contentConfiguration resets this property to nil.
