Abstract: An MRI apparatus includes magnet members for compensating the magnetic field which are disposed to a thermal shield system of the superconducting apparatus. The magnet members for compensating the magnetic field are disposed at positions where temperature change in the vacuum chamber is not transferred to the interior of the vacuum chamber.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus and the magnet apparatus thereof comprise plural pairs of magnetic field generation sources, arranged face to face with each other, for forming a magnetic field space 3; and magnetic field homogeneity adjusting apparatuses 17 and 18 for providing homogeneity adjustment of the magnetic field formed in the magnetic field space 3. The magnetic field homogeneity adjusting apparatuses 17 and 18 contain a plurality of tapped holes 24 for installing a magnetic field homogeneity adjusting member 26 of smaller volume in a plate-formed tray made of a non-magnetic substance; and a plurality of mounts 25 for installing the magnetic field homogeneity adjusting member 27 of greater volume, these mounts being formed over the area containing a plurality of through-holes for permitting installation of a magnetic field homogeneity adjusting member 26 of smaller volume, whereby major magnetic field adjusting work can be performed independently of minor magnetic field adjusting work.

Abstract: An MRI apparatus is characterized in that magnet members for compensating the magnetic field are disposed to a thermal shield system of the superconducting apparatus. It is another feature of the present invention that the magnet members for compensating the magnetic field are disposed at positions where temperature change in the vacuum chamber is not transferred to the interior of the vacuum chamber.

Abstract: Main coils, counteracting coils and correction coils, each forming superconducting coil, are enclosed in two cooling medium chamber facing to each other and an imaging region is formed between the two cooling medium chamber positioned in each vacuum chamber, the main coils being divided into two pieces to reduce the current density and the maximum experience magnetic filed and compression stress.
