Abstract
A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes a magnetostatic field magnet, a gradient coil, and a bore tube. The magnetostatic field magnet is formed to have a cylindrical shape. The gradient coil is formed to have a cylindrical shape, on the inside of the magnetostatic field magnet. The bore tube is formed to have a cylindrical shape, on the inside of the gradient coil. A first space between the gradient coil and the bore tube is configured to be kept in a vacuum state while a second space between the gradient coil and the magnetostatic field magnet is configured to be kept in a state not being a vacuum.
