Abstract: Provided is a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus with no occurrence of artifacts, even after noise removal by applying Wavelet transform to a zero-fill reconstructed image. Nuclear magnetic resonance signals acquired by the magnetic resonance imaging apparatus are processed to perform reconstruction with a reconstruction matrix extended by zero-filling an acquisition matrix, and then a zero-fill reconstructed image is produced. This reconstructed image is subjected to an iterative operation combining the Wavelet transform and L1 norm minimization to remove noise. Before the noise removal, a pre-processing is performed to change the reconstruction matrix size so that an artifact does not occur in the image after noise removal, an artifact portion appears outside the reconstruction matrix after the noise removal, or cutting out is performed so that no artifact appears after the noise removal. The matrix size is restored to its original size in the post-processing after the noise removal.
