In order to ensure that region extraction for extracting a specified internal organ can be effected with high reliability a region expansion method is applied by using an expansion condition (equation (1)) taking the local density change into consideration and an expansion condition (equation (4)) taking the global density change into consideration in combination.

A slice selection gradient magnetic field used in a pulse sequence for generating a spin echo signal is applied in such a fashion that its polarity at the time of a 90° pulse becomes opposite to the one at the time of 180° pulse, in order to expand a dynamic range of blood flow speed measurement. When the blood flow speed contains a component in a slice vertical direction, the gradient magnetic field in the slice vertical direction is adjusted so that the phase changes of two sets of flow encoded pulses contained in the slice vertical direction are opposite to each other. The flow speed in the direction of the read-out gradient magnetic field, which is a lateral direction of the slide plane, is purely measured by cancelling influences of the flow in the slice vertical direction.

To obtain a high quality image at a vascular area at high speed: (1) there is used a pulse sequence which includes a bipolar phase encoding magnetic field (106, 107), dephases (701, 702) a stationary area, and does not generate the first order moment; (2) phase distortions are estimated from measured data and removed, without incorporating a new function for function fitting; and (3) the relationship between the application timing (T E ) of a readout gradient magnetic field and the latest application time of the other slice selection and phase encoding magnetic fields is obtained using as its parameter the time T E from excitation to generation of an echo peak within a measurement signal, and using this relationship, the application timing T E is obtained which makes minimum the echo peak shift quantity.

In order to halve the number of times of signal measurements in a phase encode direction or a readout direction and raise the speed of imaging, the following steps are performed by way of example:
(i) For a measurement region E required by a conventional method, any desired partial region E is set (here, the combination between the region E + and a region obtained by moving the region E in point symmetry with respect to the origin of a measurement space includes the region E). (ii) A signal h is measured on the region E +. (iii) An image is reconstructed from the signals h + on a region neighboring the origin, thereby to obtain a phase image θ. (iv) A reconstructed image is obtained by a predetermined computation employing θ .
