Abstract
In a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus, a transmitting/receiving coil is attached to a patient at a region of interest and disposed within a static magnetic field, a radio-frequency magnetic field, and a gradient magnetic field and an image of the patient is obtained. A tabletop is used to move the patient in the static field in a horizontal direction within a horizontal plane and up and down in a direction that is perpendicular to the horizontal plane, a patient couch controller causing the tabletop to move, based on the position of the region of interest obtained from the image so that the position of the region of interest is caused to coincide in three dimensions with center of the static magnetic filed and/or the gradient magnetic field.
