    Abstract: A gradient coil device includes a major axis gradient coil, having an ellipse in a cross section generating a gradient magnetic field inclined in a major axis direction of the ellipse at a magnetic field space; and a minor axis gradient coil, having an ellipse in a cross section generating a gradient magnetic field inclined in a minor axis direction of the ellipse at the magnetic field space. A length of the minor axis field coil in the center axis direction is shorter than a length of the major axis gradient coil in the center axis direction. A maximum value of a residual magnetic field generated by the minor axis gradient coil at a space outside the magnetic field space is equal to or smaller than a maximum value of a residual magnetic field generated by the major axis gradient coil at a space outside the magnetic field space.

    Abstract: An object is to correct a magnetic field caused by an eddy current, which is generated due to application of a gradient magnetic field, not only in the application direction of the gradient magnetic field but also in a direction different from the application direction of the gradient magnetic field. In the present invention, in order to achieve this object, a compensation magnetic field which compensates for an eddy current magnetic field generated in each of an application direction of a test gradient magnetic field and a direction different from the application direction in each direction is calculated using the test gradient magnetic field. When generating an arbitrary gradient magnetic field, a compensation magnetic field which compensates for an eddy current magnetic field according to application of an arbitrary gradient magnetic field on the basis of the measured eddy current magnetic field in each direction is generated together with the arbitrary gradient magnetic field.
