ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for acquiring a magnetic resonance image representing a surface anatomy of an object, the method comprising the steps of setting a surface coil near the head of a subject, executing a predetermined pulse sequence for selecting magnetic resonance signals from protons inside the head, thereby applying a static magnetic field, gradient magnetic field, and a radio frequency pulse, detecting the magnetic resonance signals from protons by using the surface coil in accordance with the predetermined pulse sequence, reconstructing an image representing the brain surface anatomy of the subject utilizing the detected magnetic resonance signals, and displaying the image in gray scale so that the distribution of the protons is displayed in black level in proportion to the density thereof.
