Claim:
1. A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising: sequence controlling circuitry that executes a pulse sequence which applies a excitation pulse and then continuously applies a readout gradient magnetic field with alternating polarity thereof and acquires echo signals continuously generated by the pulse sequence from a plurality of receive channels; and image generating circuitry that corrects the echo signals so as to generate an image, wherein the image generating circuitry corrects the echo signals for all of the receive channels collectively on the basis of phase differences between echo signals corresponding to even lines of k-space and echo signals corresponding to odd lines of k-space, and corrects the echo signals for each of the receive channels individually on the basis of magnitude differences between echo signals corresponding to the even lines of k-space and echo signals corresponding to the odd lines of k-space.
