PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a medical image diagnostic apparatus capable of optimally drawing a blood vessel vertical to an imaging cross section.SOLUTION: An MRI body as an imaging device includes: a static magnetic field generator for generating a static magnetic field a tilted magnetic field generator for generating a tilted magnetic field a high-frequency pulse generator for applying a high-frequency pulse and a high-frequency signal receiver. The medical image diagnostic apparatus sets up a plurality of imaging cross sections 310 at discretionary intervals so as to cross with the blood flow of a specific blood vessel 202 on the basis of an image of the blood vessel 202 acquired by positioning imaging, and captures the specific blood vessel 202 according to the setup imaging cross sections 310.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】撮像断面に垂直な血管を良好に描出しえる医用画像診断装置を提供すること。【解決手段】撮像装置であるMRI本体が、静磁場を発生する静磁場発生装置と、傾斜磁場を発生する傾斜磁場発生装置と、高周波パルスを照射する高周波パルス送信装置と、高周波信号受信装置と、を備え、位置決め撮像で得られた血管202の画像に基づいて、前記特定血管202の血流に対して交差する関係となるように任意の間隔で複数の撮像断面310が設定され、前記設定された撮像断面310に従って前記特定血管202の撮像が行われる、ことを特徴とする医用画像診断装置。【選択図】図8
