It has an object to suppress reduction of an examination efficiency caused by limitation of SAR (specific absorption rate) to the minimum level in an examination that plural imaging sequences containing different imaging sequences are consecutively executed. In consideration of the time variation of time average SAR value in the overall examination, the order of executing the imaging sequences is determined so that the SAR value falls within a predetermined range and the waiting time between imaging sequences is minimum. The determination is performed by calculating a waiting time of each of all conceivable execution orders and selecting an execution order having the minimum waiting time.
