    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a MRI apparatus determines a first time during which a subsidiary power supply is capable of supplying power to a cooling device based on a capacity of the subsidiary power supply when power outage of a main power supply occurs, and determines a second time needed to demagnetize a superconducting magnet based on an excitation current of the superconducting magnet and a temperature of the superconducting magnet. The MRI apparatus determines starts ramp-down of the superconducting magnet after a third time based on the first time and the second time has elapsed from initiation of power outage of the main power supply.

    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a magnetic resonance imaging system includes a first power supply, one or more second power supplies and control circuitry. The first power supply supplies power to a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus at a time of power outage of a commercial power supply electrically connected to the magnetic resonance imaging apparatus. The second power supplies supply the power to the magnetic resonance imaging apparatus. The control circuitry determines a state of feeding from the first power supply and the second power supplies to the magnetic resonance imaging apparatus, and performs control of power consumption in the magnetic resonance imaging apparatus based on a determination result of the state of feeding.
