We describe a method to capture wave displacement in vivo in the human forearm for magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) at low magnetic field (0.1 T). Taking advantage of the inherently low spatial frequency nature of propagating waves, the proposed method samples a very low fraction (10%) of the 3D k-space, combined with efficient motion-encoding, processing schemes, and an optimized RF quadrature volume coil. For the first time, acquisitions are demonstrated in humans at a field below 1.5 T within only a few minutes (1-3 min).
