Abstract
An magnetic resonance apparatuscomprises dummy-slice defining unit. The dummy-slice defining unitdefines a dummy slice a in a region lying in a z-direction with respect to a group gr, and a dummy slice b in a region lying in a (−z)-direction with respect to the group gr. The dummy-slice defining unitalso defines a dummy slice c in a region lying in the z-direction with respect to a group gr, and a dummy slice d in a region lying in the (−z)-direction with respect to the group gr. The dummy-slice defining unitfurther defines the dummy slices a, b, c, d so that the slice thickness of the dummy slices a, b, c, d is greater than that of slices Lto L
