A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus according to embodiments includes sequence control circuitry and processing circuitry. The sequence control circuitry performs first imaging and second imaging to a subject. The processing circuitry detects a state of a setting of the subject by using a magnetic resonance image acquired from the first imaging, and causes a display to display supporting information that supports the setting of the subject based on information defected. The sequence control circuitry performs the second imaging on the subject after the supporting information is displayed.
