PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a high frequency coil in which electromagnetic interference caused by overlapping of coil elements in a single high frequency coil is easily decreased, and to provide a magnetic resonance imaging device thereof.SOLUTION: The high frequency coil of an embodiment includes a plurality of coil elements. Further, in the high frequency coil, one coil element from among the coil elements which overlap due to circling when being arranged with respect to an imaging portion can be switched from a tuning circuit which resonates at a prescribed frequency to a non-tuning circuit which does not resonate at the prescribed frequency.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】単一の高周波コイルにおけるコイルエレメント同士の重なり合いから生じる電磁的干渉を容易に低減することができる高周波コイル及び磁気共鳴イメージング装置を提供すること。【解決手段】実施形態に係る高周波コイルは、複数のコイルエレメントを備える。また、実施形態に係る高周波コイルは、撮像部位に対して配置した際に周回によって重なり合うコイルエレメントのうち、一方のコイルエレメントを、所定周波数で共振する同調回路から、前記所定周波数で共振しない非同調回路に切り替え可能である。【選択図】図2
