Provided is a technique in MRI to efficiently suppress downstream blood in a specific region in a blood vessel having a slow flow velocity, such as the portal vein. For this purpose, a plurality of Beam Sat pulses are applied so as to equally suppress signals of blood flowing into a desired imaging region from a desired blood vessel during the period from applying an IR pulse to starting main imaging. Downstream blood in a specific region in a blood vessel having a slow flow velocity, such as the portal vein, can be suppressed efficiently by determining application conditions of the plurality of Beam Sat pulses that achieve the above based on a flow velocity of blood in a desired blood vessel and T1 of the said blood.
