<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide technology for obtaining SAR (Specific Absorption Ratio) more accurately than before in magnetic resonance imaging. <P>SOLUTION: According to one embodiment, a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes an image generating unit and an SAR calculating unit. The image generating unit receives a magnetic resonance signal generated by transmission of an RF (Radio Frequency) pulse from a subject and generates image data of the subject based on the magnetic resonance signal. The SAR calculating unit performs a correction operation on an energy control value of the RF pulse according to an imaging condition, and calculates an SAR value based on an energy value subjected to the correction operation. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT</p> |
