First, prior to the measurement of the magnetic resonance spectroscopic image, the gradient polarity of a gradient magnetic field to be applied to an object is inverted periodically. This makes it possible to measure a multi-gradient echo type magnetic resonance signal that has been subjected to the influence of an eddy current. Then, from the magnetic resonance spectrum obtained therefrom, a peak of the frequency component is extracted that corresponds to a hydrogen nucleus in the water molecule. Finally, using a static magnetic field homogeneity degree-adjusting unit, a shimming current to be flowed through a shimming coil and/or an offset current to be flowed through a gradient magnetic field generating coil are adjusted so that the width of the peak becomes narrow, thereby enhancing the degree of the static magnetic field homogeneity.
