MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system comprising:
- a main magnet, a gradient coil, and a radio frequency (RF) coil formed in a housing; and
a system controller configured to control the main magnet, the gradient coil, and the RF coil,wherein the system controller includes different system controllers simultaneously or sequentially acquiring magnetic resonance (MR) images of different elements.

Abstract
Disclosed is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. The disclosed MRI system includes a system controller capable of separately acquiring MR image signals of different elements existing in an object. The system controller includes a first system controller capable of acquiring an MR signal of a first element, and a second system controller capable of acquiring an MR signal of a second element different from the first element. The first system controller and the second system controller are physically separated. The first system controller and the second system controller control a first radio frequency (RF) coil element and a second RF coil element of an RF coil, respectively.
