Abstract
An image processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes conversion circuitry, magnitude image generating circuitry and phase image generating circuitry. The conversion circuitry is configured to convert time-series k-space data into first time-series x-space data, the x-space representing a spatial position. The magnitude image generating circuitry is configured to generate a magnitude image from second time-series x-space data, the second time-series x-space data being acquired by applying a first filter to the first time-series x-space data. The phase image generating circuitry is configured to generate a phase image from third time-series x-space data, the third time-series x-space data being acquired by applying, to the first time-series x-space data, a second filter that is different from the first filter.
