In a medical imaging device that performs compressed sensing, it is possible to shorten a reconstruction time while maintaining image quality.
The medical imaging device includes an image reconstructing unit that reconstructs an image by performing an iterative optimization operation of compressed sensing and a base selecting unit that selects a base transform which is used for the optimization every iteration. The base selecting unit may select a base on the basis of a predetermined base sequence or may select a base using weighting factors which are set for the bases in advance. The invention is applied to a medical imaging device such as an MRI apparatus, an ultrasonic imaging apparatus, or a CT apparatus.
