MRI apparatus includes an RF coil device, a first radio communication unit, a second radio communication unit, an image reconstruction unit and a judging unit. The RF coil device detects an MR signal, and includes a data saving unit for storing the MR signal. The first radio communication unit wirelessly transmits the MR signal detected by the RF coil device, and the second radio communication unit receives the MR signal from the first radio communication unit. The image reconstruction unit reconstructs image data using the MR signal. The judging unit judges existence of a transmission error in radio communication between the first and second radio communication units. If the transmission error is present, the first radio communication unit wirelessly transmit the MR signal stored in the data saving unit to the second radio communication unit.
