    Abstract: There is provided a technique for suppressing increase of SAR without sacrificing sensitivity in RF coils used in MRI apparatuses. The present invention provides an antenna device comprising a sheet-shaped conductor and a ribbon-shaped conductor disposed on the subject side with respect to the sheet-shaped conductor with a predetermined distance from the sheet-shaped conductor. The ribbon-shaped conductor has a meandering shape, and is adjusted so as to resonate at transmission and reception frequencies, and it is constituted so that distance to the sheet-shaped conductor becomes smaller at both end part thereof along the static magnetic field direction compared with the distance to the sheet-shaped conductor at the center thereof. Moreover, the ribbon-shaped conductor is constituted so as to have a smaller width, as the distance to the sheet-shaped conductor becomes smaller.

    Abstract: In the diffusion-weighted imaging, amounts of distortion and amounts of phase offset of k-space data due to a temporally changing magnetic field error induced by eddy currents and vibrations associated with application of a diffusion-weighted gradient magnetic field pulse are corrected with good precision to improve image quality. Characteristic data for correcting distortion of k-space data are calculated for every position in the slice direction as peak shifts of projections observed between the cases of applying and not applying an MPG pulse. As the characteristic data, amounts of distortion in the read-out direction and the phase encoding direction and phase offset amounts in a slice plane are calculated.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a magnetic resonance imaging system capable of performing spectrum measurement even when a magnetic resonant frequency changes during MRS measurement. A time-varying rate of a water magnetic resonant frequency is measured in advance before the MRS measurement. The amount of change in water magnetic resonant frequency during the MRS measurement is predicted from the measured time-varying rate. With the predicted value as the reference, a transmission frequency of an RF magnetic field irradiated in a signal suppression pulse sequence, a transmission frequency of an RF magnetic field for excitation and inversion and a received frequency at the detection of a magnetic resonance signal in a sequence of the MRS measurement are respectively set. A high-precision spectrum measurement is hence enabled.

    Abstract: In order to stably obtain an even fat-suppressed image without reduction of an imaging efficiency and without being affected by unevenness of irradiation magnetic field of an RF pulse, when an imaging sequence having a first sequence part for suppressing a signal from a desired component of an examinee by applying a CHESS pulse and a second sequence part for measuring an echo signal from the examinee is repeated, the flip angle of the CHESS pulse is changed at plural times. In the case of multi-slice imaging, the flip angle of the CHESS pulse is changed in at lest two slice imaging.
