In one embodiment, an MRI apparatus includes a scanner and processing circuitry. The scanner includes at least two gradient coils. The processing circuitry is configured to cause the scanner to acquire k-space data for correction in a band-shaped two-dimensional k-space along a readout direction, or in a columnar three-dimensional k-space along a readout direction, while changing rotation angles, wherein each of the rotation angles corresponds to the readout direction, generate correction data for correcting an error due to a gradient magnetic field generated by the gradient coils, by using the acquired k-space data for correction, cause the scanner to acquire k-space data for reconstruction, based on a radial acquisition method, while correcting the gradient magnetic field by using the correction data, and generate an image by reconstructing the acquired k-space data for reconstruction.
