Abstract
A magnetic resonance imaging system () includes a sequence control unit (), a sampling unit (), and a control unit (). The sequence control unit () controls a magnetic resonance scanner () to acquire compressed magnetic resonance data from an imaged region of a subject. The sampling unit () determines a change in a concentration of a contrast agent present in the image region of the subject based on magnetic resonance signals received by a radio frequency receiver. The control unit () adjusts a degree of compression of the acquired magnetic resonance data based on the determination made by the sampling unit ().
