Title:
MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/090620
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An MRI apparatus (10) includes: a superconducting coil (115) that includes a high-temperature superconducting material and that generates a static magnetic field to which a subject (170) is exposed; and a DC power supply device (200) that supplies a direct current to the superconducting coil (115). The DC power supply device (200) is configured to allow setting of a plurality of magnetic-field intensities by adjusting the amplitude of the output current that is supplied to the superconducting coil (115).
