MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING DEVICE, CALCULATION DEVICE FOR GENERATION OF IMAGING PARAMETER SET, AND IMAGING PARAMETER SET GENERATION PROGRAM

摘要

An MRI device for executing an imaging operation at least three times or more with a different combination of at least a repetition time and a flip angle in the same imaging sequence, includes: a receiving unit which receives information specifying an imaging target and a constraint condition relating to an imaging time or quantitative value accuracy; and a scan parameter set generation unit which calculates at least three or more scan parameter sets having a different combination of at least the repetition time and the flip angle on the basis of the constraint condition. The MRI device uses three or more scan parameter sets generated by the optimal scan parameter set generation unit and calculates quantitative values (T1, T2, and the like) of the imaging target from a plurality of images obtained by the imaging operation.
