| 1. A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising:
a data acquisition unit configured to acquire data according to a sequence derived by adding a coherent control pulse on a
Steady-State Free Precession pulse sequence for repeating plural radio frequency excitations with a constant interval, the
coherent control pulse having a center at a substantially center time between adjacent radio frequency excitations and a zero-order
moment of which amount is zero; and
an image data generating unit configured to generate image data based on the data.
