Abstract

A radio frequency power supply according to an embodiment is a radio frequency power supply that amplifies an input signal including application timing of a radio frequency magnetic field and waveform information and that supplies the amplified input signal to a radio frequency coil. The radio frequency power supply includes an amplifier and a controlling unit. The amplifier amplifies the input signal and to output an amplified signal. The controlling circuity varies power supply voltage used by the amplifier for the amplification of the input signal, in accordance with the input signal.
