1. A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising:
- a spectrum acquisition unit configured to acquire a frequency spectrum of magnetic resonance signals from a metabolic product in a target region in an object by applying radio frequency pulses and gradient magnetic field pulses to the object in a static magnetic field; and
a determining unit configured to determine one of the number of times of integrations and the number of times of phase encodes of magnetic resonance signals for obtaining the frequency spectrum depending on a factor influencing the frequency spectrum.

Abstract
A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes a spectrum acquisition unit and a determining unit. The spectrum acquisition unit acquires a frequency spectrum of magnetic resonance signals from a metabolic product in a target region in an object. The determining unit determines one of the numbers of integrations and phase encodes of magnetic resonance signals for obtaining the frequency spectrum depending on a factor influencing the frequency spectrum.
