摘要： In a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to the present embodiment, the sequence execution control unit alternately executes an imaging sequence of collecting data for generating a diagnostic image and a navigator sequence of collecting data for generating a navigator image that is an image for motion detection. The slice position detecting unit analyzes the navigator image generated from the data collected in the navigator sequence each time the navigator sequence is executed, and thereby detects the position of a mark indicating a slice excited by the imaging sequence executed prior to the navigator sequence. The respiratory motion estimating unit estimates the motion of a portion due to the subject's respiration, based on the detected position of the mark.

摘要： A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes an input unit, a data acquisition unit and an image generating unit. The input unit inputs information indicating a matter of which resonance frequency is a center frequency of an excitation pulse. The data acquisition unit acquires magnetic resonance data with obtaining a steady state free precession. Each of the plural excitation pulses has a transmission phase varying by a variation amount determined based on a difference between a resonance frequency and the center frequency. The image generating unit generates an image of the desired matter based on the magnetic resonance data.

The coherent control pulse has a center at a substantially center time between adjacent radio frequency excitations and a zero-order moment of which amount is zero. The image data generating unit generates image data based on the data.

摘要： In a medical imaging method of taking a tomographic image of a sample into which a contrast medium is injected by the use of a medical imaging system, a monitoring operation is performed on the sample into which the contrast medium is injected and then an imaging scan for reconstructing the tomographic image is performed. The monitoring operation is to repeat the steps of: (1) performing a monitoring scan for collecting data representing a concentration distribution of the contrast medium in a monitoring region of the sample, (2) reconstructing a reconstructed image representing the concentration distribution of the contrast medium in the monitoring region from the data acquired by the monitoring scan, (3) calculating a maximum signal value from a reconstructed image newly reconstructed and the reconstructed image previously reconstructed every pixel and generating a monitoring image including the maximum signal value calculated every pixel whenever the reconstructed image is newly reconstructed, and (4) monitoring whether a start time of the imaging scan comes in, until the start time comes in.
