MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING APPARATUS

摘要

A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes sequence controlling circuitry and image generating circuitry. The sequence controlling circuitry is configured to continuously apply, after application of an excitation pulse, a readout gradient magnetic field while inverting polarity to control execution of a pulse sequence that continuously generates multiple echo signals and configured to collect echo signals for multiple channels by parallel imaging. The image generating circuitry is configured to extract at least one of an even-number-th collected echo signal group and an odd-number-th collected echo signal group from multiple echo signals continuously collected and configured to generate at least one of an even-number-th image and an odd-number-th image using the extracted echo signal group for the multiple channels and sensitivity distribution for the multiple channels.
