Abstract
According to the present invention, accurate T2* and vascular images are concurrently acquired by acquiring a T2* image without a flow compensation and a T2* image with a flow compensation and subtracting the two images to reconstitute an image showing the flow phenomenon. Furthermore, an accurate T2* image can be acquired by using the readout gradient without the flow compensation and also the accurate T2* and vascular images can be concurrently acquired. The clinical judgment for blood flow rate of the blood vessel and the clinical judgment for acute stroke can be concurrently made, and so the present invention can be widely utilized in clinical practice.
