Abstract
(n−1) frames of image information which rarely includes contrast agent information are subtracted from addition information obtained by adding a multi-shot image group consisting of a plurality of frames (for example, n−1 frames) which includes the contrast agent information, thereby acquiring image information based on all of the contrast agent which has existed in one scanning plane in the image processing manner.
