A technique for reconciling large sensitivity area and high sensitivity for deep part in a multi-channel array coil of an MRI apparatus without complicating the configuration, and realizing both higher speed imaging and high image quality is provided. An RF coil (array coil) of a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising a plurality of subcoils is provided. At least one of the subcoils is a first subcoil of which resonance frequency as that of the subcoil alone differs from magnetic resonance frequency. The first subcoil is adjusted so that it magnetically couples with a second subcoil, which is at least one other subcoil, and thus resonates at the same frequency as the magnetic resonance frequency. Input and output terminals of the first subcoil and the second subcoil are connected to different low input and output impedance signal processing circuits, respectively.
