Abstract

A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes: a coil configured to receive a magnetic resonance signal emitted from a subject due to influence of a radio frequency magnetic field; and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to detect at least one tissue from among a femoral head, the pelvis, an articular labrum, the pubic symphysis, the urethra, and the apex of the prostate of the subject, from a locator image based on the magnetic resonance signal and corresponding to a range including the prostate of the subject. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a region to be imaged of the prostate of the subject, on the basis of the detected tissue.
