A high-frequency coil for a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes
two end members formed of a conductive material and arranged opposite to
each other. A plurality of rod members, each of which is formed of a
conductive material having a rod shape have one end portion connected to
one of the two end members and the other end portion connected to the
other of the two end members. At east one additional member is formed of
a conductive member having a rod shape, the additional member having both
ends connected to one of the rod members, the additional member being
disposed outside a first imaging region formed by the end members and the
rod members, and forming a second imaging region.
