Abstract:
In one embodiment, a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes memory circuitry configured to store a predetermined program; and processing circuitry configured, by executing the predetermined program, to set an FSE type pulse sequence in which an excitation pulse is followed by a plurality of refocusing pulses, the plurality of the refocusing being divided into at least a first pulse group subsequent to the excitation pulse and a second pulse group subsequent to the first pulse group, the first pulse group including refocusing pulses having a predetermined high flip angle, and the second pulse group including refocusing pulses having flip angles decreased from the predetermined high flip angle toward a flip angle of zero, and generate an image of an object from respective MR signals corresponding to the plurality of refocusing pulses acquired by applying the fast spin echo type pulse sequence to the object.

Claim (Index 20):
The magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to  claim 19 ,\n wherein the processing circuitry is configured to set the GRE type pulse sequence in such a manner that MR signals corresponding to the excitation pulses having the predetermined low flip angle are arranged to a high-frequency region of one of a positive side and a negative side in k-space.
