Abstract

See full text

A nuclear magnetic resonance imaging scheme for imaging living body information related to the physiological function change in the living body. In this scheme, the pulse sequence realizes a first imaging scheme sensitive to functional information of the body to be examined and a second imaging scheme insensitive to the functional information of the body to be examined so as to obtain first and second types of the nuclear magnetic resonance images corresponding to the first and second imaging schemes, respectively, by a single execution of this pulse sequence. The functional information of the body to be examined is then obtained by processing the first and second types of the nuclear magnetic resonance images.
