Abstract

An image processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to obtain one or more complex product signal values each indicating a signal value of a complex product and a complex ratio signal value indicating a signal value of a complex ratio calculated in units of pixels by using first data and second data successively acquired by implementing a gradient echo method after an Inversion Recovery (IR) pulse is applied and to derive a T1 value of each of the pixels from one of the complex product signal values selected on the basis of the obtained complex ratio signal value.
