Abstract
The magnetic particle imaging apparatus includes: a retaining unit configured to retain an inspection target; a static magnetic field generator configured to generate a linear magnetic field-free region that passes through the inspection target retained by the retaining unit; an AC magnetic field application coil configured to apply an AC magnetic field to the magnetic field-free region; and a detection coil configured to detect a magnetic variation of magnetic particles in the magnetic field-free region as a signal. The retaining unit, the AC magnetic field application coil and the detection coil are movable relative to the static magnetic field generator in the third direction as an integral structure.
