1. A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus, comprising:
- an imaging unit that performs magnetic resonance imaging of an object involving application of a prepulse; and
an application region calculating unit that automatically calculates an application region of the prepulse according to a region of interest of the magnetic resonance imaging based on “
image data including the region of interest”
that are acquired before the application of the prepulse.

Abstract
According to one embodiment, an MRI apparatus includes an imaging unit and an application region calculating unit. The application region calculating unit automatically calculates an application region of a prepulse according to a region of interest of magnetic resonance imaging based on image data including the region of interest that are acquired before the application of the prepulse. The imaging unit performs magnetic resonance imaging of an object involving the application of the prepulse.
