MRI works by the patient being placed first in a strong magnetic field. Most of the hydrogen atoms that make the tissues of the body contain one proton in the nucleus. Protons are always spinning. Because they are charged and spin, they produce a tiny magnet field, something like the electrons spiraling around the core of an electromagnet. In a magnet field the hydrogen protons act like tiny toy tops that wobble as they spin. The rate of the wobbling is called resonance. Since the proton makes up the nucleus of an atom, the wobbling effect is called nuclear magnetic resonance.

The drive reads data by passing the head back over the surface of the medium. As the head encounters changes in the stored magnetic field, it generates a weak electrical current that indicates the presence or absence of flux transitions in the signal as it was originally written.

Electromagnetic waves can be used to carry images as well as sound. The transmission of the images and sounds on television is very similar to that of radio sounds.
