Abstract
A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising an imaging condition setting unit, a gradient coil, a radio frequency coil, a data acquisition unit, an image reconstructing unit and an image data generating unit. The imaging condition setting unit sets a first imaging condition and a second imaging condition at least. The data acquisition unit acquires first magnetic resonance signal data corresponding to the first imaging condition and second magnetic resonance signal data corresponding to the second imaging condition. The image reconstructing unit reconstructs first three dimensional image data in accordance with the first magnetic resonance signal data and second three dimensional image data in accordance with the second magnetic resonance signal data. The image data generating unit combines the first three dimensional image data and the second three dimensional image data to generate third three dimensional image data.
