A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising a measurement parameter-setting unit for setting measurement parameters that determine the strength and timing of the high frequency magnetic field and the gradient magnetic field, and a measuring unit for applying the high frequency magnetic field and the gradient magnetic field on a subject placed in the static magnetic field according to the measurement parameters and detecting the nuclear magnetic resonance signal generated from the subject as a complex signal. The measurement parameter-setting unit is equipped with: a basic parameter-inputting section for setting the imaging parameters and imaging cross-section a limiting condition-inputting section for setting limiting conditions that apply limits on the setting of the voxel size a voxel size-calculating section for setting the voxel size according to the limiting conditions and a voxel size-displaying section for displaying the set voxel size to the user.
