With the objective of generating an imaging area including fluid with
desired image quality at a subject and enhancing image quality, a first
inversion recovery pulse is transmitted so as to invert spins in a second
subject region which includes a first subject region used as the imaging
area and is broader than the first subject region, before execution of a
pulse sequence corresponding to an FSE method at every TR in an imaging
sequence. After the execution of the pulse sequence corresponding to the
FSE method, a second refocus pulse is transmitted so as to cause spins in
a third subject region including the first subject region and wider than
the first subject region to reconverge. A fast recovery pulse is
transmitted to selectively recover spins in the first subject region.
Thereafter, a second inversion recovery pulse is transmitted so as to
invert the spins in the second subject region.
