Patent abstract
An object of the present invention is to intensify the strength of a magnetic field to be applied to a subject. An auxiliary coil is interposed between a body coil incorporated in a magnet assembly included in an MRI apparatus and the subject. When RF pulses are transmitted from the body coil, an induced current flows through the auxiliary coil and generates a magnetic field. The magnetic field excites the subject near the subject.
