Abstract: According to one embodiment, an MRI apparatus includes a power transmitting unit a signal receiving unit and an image reconstruction unit. The power transmitting unit wirelessly transmits electric power to an RF coil device by magnetically coupled resonant type wireless power transfer. The signal receiving unit wirelessly receives a digitized nuclear magnetic resonance signal wirelessly transmitted from the RF coil device. The image reconstruction unit obtains a nuclear magnetic resonance signal received by the signal receiving unit, and reconstructs image data of an object on the basis of the nuclear magnetic resonance signal.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes a receiver array coil structured with a plurality of receiver coils. Each of the receiver coils included in the receiver array coil includes a coil element, a first tuning element configured to tune a tunable frequency of the receiver coil to a desired frequency, and a series circuit including a switching element and a second tuning element and being connected in parallel with the first tuning element. The switching element is configured to disconnect the first tuning element and the second tuning element from each other at the time of transmitting and is configured to arrange the first tuning element and the second tuning element to be electrically conductive with each other at the time of receiving. At least two receiver coils positioned adjacent to each other among the plurality of receiver coils are decoupled from each other.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes a monitoring coil, a measuring device, and processing circuitry. The monitoring coil continuously transmits to a subject an electromagnetic wave having a monitoring frequency, and without touching the subject. The measuring device measures a change in the impedance related to the monitoring coil over time to thereby generate a biosignal of the subject. The processing circuitry is configured to determine the monitoring frequency that is higher than a frequency of a high-frequency magnetic field based on the information of the subject, and to controls a sequence related to the imaging based on the biosignal.
