In one embodiment, an MRI apparatus (20) includes a reference scan setting unit (100), a reference scan execution unit, and an image generation unit. The reference scan setting unit calculates a signal acquisition region of "a reference scan in which MR signals used for generation of a sensitivity distribution map of each coil element are acquired", depending on an imaging region of a main scan of parallel imaging. The reference scan execution unit executes the reference scan on the calculated signal acquisition region. The image generation unit generates image data according to "MR signals acquired by the main scan" and "the sensitivity distribution map generated based on MR signals acquired by the reference scan". |
