A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method is provided, including the steps of generating a wideband RF signal that has a plurality of frequency bands respectively corresponding to a plurality of different kinds of nuclei, to simultaneously excite the different kinds of nuclei, detecting a wideband responsive RF signal that has a plurality of frequency bands respectively emitted by the different kinds of nuclei, and reconstructing magnetic resonance images for the different kinds of nuclei based on the wideband responsive RF signal. An MRI apparatus employing the MRI method is also provided.
