Abstract
A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to an embodiment includes first generating circuitry and second generating circuitry. The first generating circuitry interpolates a first data string of digital data including envelope information of a radio frequency (RF) pulse to be output, thereby generating a second data string in which a variation amount of digital data adjacent to each other in the first data string is smaller than an upper limit value. The second generating circuitry generates a signal of the RF pulse by combining the second data string generated by the first generating circuitry and information relating to a carrier wave of the RF pulse, and outputs the signal to an RF amplifier.
