MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING APPARATUS, MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING METHOD AND MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING SYSTEM

摘要

A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes a sequence control unit, an image generating unit, and a deriving unit. The sequence control unit executes first imaging scan for acquiring data of a range including a target internal organ and second imaging scan for acquiring data for a diagnostic image by controlling execution of a pulse sequence. The image generating unit generates an image by using data acquired by the first imaging scan. The deriving unit derives an imaging scan area in which data for the diagnostic image are acquired in the second imaging scan and a related area set associated with the imaging scan area in the second imaging scan, based on image processing using the image.
