1. A magnetic resonance (MR) imaging system, comprising:
a magnetics system having a plurality of magnetics components configured to produce magnetic fields for performing magnetic resonance imaging;
a noise reduction system configured to receive electromagnetic interference electrically coupled from a patient and compensate for the electromagnetic interference during imaging of the patient; and
a sensor configured to, when the patient is within capacitive coupling range of the sensor, capacitively couple the electromagnetic interference from the patient to the sensor and to provide the electromagnetic interference to the noise reduction system.
