PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily set an element coil for imaging while precisely measuring the position of element coils on a receiving coil. SOLUTION: A coil positional information storage unit 14a stores coil positional information that indicates physical positions of element coils relative to a representative position set on a receiving coil. A data processing unit creates profile data that indicates the distribution of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) signals in the arrangement direction of the element coils every element coil based on each NMR signal received by the element coils. A coil position calculating unit 17a calculates the position of the representative position set on the receiving coil by performing a regression analysis with the use of the coil positional information as well as the profile data. A coil display control unit 17b orders a display unit 15 to display the position of each element coil based on the calculated representative position. An imaging coil setting unit 17c sets an element coil to be used for imaging out of the plurality of element coils. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
