1. A magnetic resonance imaging device, comprising:

  • a pulse generating unit that generates a saturation pulse for reducing a signal of a water molecule within the living body and a pulse sequence after saturation time for the saturation pulse;

    a sampling implementing unit that implements sampling in each of a plurality of k-spaces acquired according to a repeated sequence applying the saturation pulse and the pulse sequence, and implements the sampling for a sampling area including a center portion of each of the k-spaces and a certain portion differently determined for each of the k-spaces; and

    an image acquiring unit that acquires a reconstructed image from the data acquired as a result of the sampling,wherein the pulse generating unit applies a saturation pulse having a different frequency per the sequence, andthe sampling implementing unit acquires data for the center portion at a Nyquist rate and acquires data for the certain portion at a rate lower than the Nyquist rate.
