Abstract
When image information obtained on the basis of an NMR signal, e.g. MRI, is acquired, a radio frequency pulse is set so that a strong signal can be obtained particularly from a portion of interest among the sample. To accomplish this object, the occurrence of signals from portions of the sample other than the selected portion of interest is inhibited in advance of obtaining information (an image) of the sample. Various radio frequency pulses are then irradiated to the sample and a suitable radio frequency pulse is determined on the basis of the resulting signal.
