PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus in which a series of inspection flows including positioning, imaging, analysis processing and the like are automatically performed, thereby reducing the burden of manual operation on the user and improving inspection efficiency. An arithmetic unit (20) that controls the operation and calculation of the entire apparatus and an imaging unit (30) that performs imaging according to control by the arithmetic unit are provided, and the arithmetic unit has at least one of imaging processing, analysis processing, display processing, and transfer processing. A storage unit 21 that records a plurality of inspection flow data including one or more processes and stores a plurality of keywords indicating at least a part of the contents of the inspection flow data in association with each other, and an input for executing a desired inspection by the user. A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising an input unit 10 for receiving an instruction and an inspection flow control unit 22 for selecting inspection flow data matching the input instruction and executing processing included in the inspection flow data. [Selection diagram] Fig. 1【課題】位置決め、撮像及び解析処理等を含む一連の検査フローを自動的に行うことにより、ユーザに手動操作による負担を軽減させ検査効率を向上させた磁気共鳴イメージング装置を提供する。【解決手段】装置全体の動作制御及び演算を行う演算部２０と演算部による制御に従って撮像を行う撮像部３０とを備え、演算部が、撮像処理、解析処理、表示処理及び転送処理のうち少なくとも1以上の処理を含む検査フローデータを複数記録すると共に、検査フローデータの少なくとも一部の内容を示す複数のキーワードを関連づけて記憶した記憶部２１と、ユーザによる所望の検査を実行するための入力指示を受け付ける入力部１０と、入力指示に合致する検査フローデータを選択し、検査フローデータに含まれる処理を実行させる検査フロー制御部２２と、を備えた磁気共鳴イメージング装置。【選択図】図１
