According to one of embodiments, an MRI apparatus includes at least one receiving coil configured to receive magnetic resonance signals from an object; and processing circuitry configured to generate an image based on the magnetic resonance signals, calculate a weighting map of the image based on at least one of a sensitivity characteristic of the receiving coil and a distance from a magnetic field center, and generate a quantitative susceptibility image, which quantitatively indicates magnetic susceptibility inside a body, from the image by using the weighting map.
