    摘要: A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes a transmission coil and processing circuitry. The transmission coil is configured to apply a high frequency magnetic field to an object. The processing circuitry is configured to: derive, based on at least one of an imaging region and the body shape data of the object, a specific area in a field of view (FOV); and determine, based on a signal within the specific area, an output power level of a high frequency pulse signal supplied to the transmission coil.

    摘要: A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes a static magnetic field generator, a transmit/receive system, and an acquiring means. The static magnetic field generator is configured to apply a second static magnetic field in addition to a first static magnetic field serving as a reference. The transmit/receive system is configured to perform transmitting and receiving at a single frequency. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire a magnetic resonance signal by employing the transmit/receive system. The transmit/receive system is configured to perform transmitting and receiving at a resonance frequency of a hydrogen nucleus in a state in which the first static magnetic field is applied and is configured to perform transmitting and receiving at a resonance frequency of a nuclide different from the hydrogen nucleus in a state in which the second static magnetic field is applied in addition to the first static magnetic field.
