Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging by Janis O'Malley & Harvery Ziessman is one of the best literature I have ever across. The text is written is very simple language for both Undergraduate and graduate student of medical Technology with full color illustration for each chapter. I will recommend this text for every students and working professional as best reference in analysis of Molecular imaging in Nuclear medicine. Engr.
