Abstract
When it is difficult to apply a rephasing gradient magnetic field of a predetermined order according to an imaging parameter value set as input, a rephasing gradient magnetic field of a smaller amount of application is calculated, and at least some echo signals are measured using the calculated rephasing gradient magnetic field of the smaller amount of application.
