| 摘要 |
A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus that applies a gradient magnetic field and a radio-frequency magnetic field to a subject in a static magnetic field to image the subject based on magnetic resonance signals emitted from the subject, includes a unit which generates K transmission radio-frequency pulse signals required to produce the radio-frequency magnetic field, an allocation unit which allocates the K transmission radio-frequency pulse signals to K in M transmission signal paths, a connection unit to which at most M radio-frequency coils are attachable and which selectively connects the M transmission signal paths and M reception signal paths to the radio-frequency coils, a selection unit which selects N in magnetic resonance signals which are respectively received by the at most M radio-frequency coils and transmitted through the at most M reception signal paths, and a unit which performs reception processing for each of the selected N magnetic resonance signals.
