An MRI system capable of acquiring a high-quality blood vessel image even
during a measuring period other than at an injected contrast medium
concentration peak by always picking up an image under optimum conditions
while following up with an injected contrast medium concentration that
changes every moment in the body. A flip angle is changed according to a
contrast medium concentration b(t) as shown by a curve (102). During a
period (Da) where a contrast medium concentration b(t) gradually
increases, a flip angle (FA) increases according to a contrast medium
concentration b(t); and during a period (Db) where a contrast medium
concentration b(t) gradually decrease, a flip angle is gradually
decreased. If a flip angle is controlled so as to follow up with a
contrast medium concentration b(t) and reach an Ernst's angle at which a
single intensity is at a maximum, a high-quality blood vessel image can
be acquired even during a measuring period other than at an injected
contrast medium concentration peak.
