摘要： According to one embodiment, a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes an image generating unit, a judging unit and a correction unit. The image generating unit receives, from an object, a magnetic resonance signal caused by transmission of an RF pulse to cause a nuclear magnetic resonance, and generates image data of the object based on the magnetic resonance signal. The judging unit identifies an implant region where an implant part exists inside the object, based on the image data. The correction unit acquires magnetic resonance frequency information from a body region which is a region inside the object excluding the implant region, and corrects a center frequency of the RF pulse based on the magnetic resonance frequency information.

摘要： In a phase unwrapping evolution method according to the invention, steps of grouping phase data first, phase unwrapping evolution targeting groups is performed, and, then, merging of the target groups is performed are repeatedly applied. As unwrapping evolution processing proceeds, groups increase and information on a phase difference among the group increases. Thus, the influence of phase data that tends to be a cause of failure of unwrapping evolution gradually decreases and a result with higher robustness than the conventional method is obtained. In addition, a group once subjected to unwrapping evolution continues to be subjected to unwrapping evolution as a new group created by merging. Thus, even if a phase is decided once, the group is subjected to wrapping evolution many times in order to match the phase with phases of other groups. As a result, it is possible to prevent a series of occurrence of failure of unwrapping evolution. Failure of unwrapping evolution is reduced compared with the conventional method and stability of unwrapping evolution is improved.

摘要翻译： 在根据本发明的相位展开演进方法中，首先执行对相位数据进行分组的步骤，相位展开进化瞄准组，然后重复应用目标组的合并。 随着解卷进化处理的进行，组增加，组间相位差的信息增加。 因此，趋向于成为展开演化失败的原因的相位数据的影响逐渐减小，并且获得了比常规方法更高的鲁棒性的结果。 此外，一旦遭受解开演变的小组，将继续作为通过合并创建的新组合来展开演变。 因此，即使确定一次相位，也可以对组进行多次缠绕演算，以使其与其他组的相位相匹配。 结果，可以防止展开演化的一系列失败的发生。 展开演化的失败与传统方法相比有所降低，提高了展开演化的稳定性。
