• Lobar localization was defined in 94.5% of patients by the [18F]FDG PET/MRI/MEG. • The results of PET/MRI/MEG concordance with surgical resection were significantly higher than that of PET/MRI or MEG alone. • The results of PET/MRI/MEG cortical resection concordance with surgical outcome were shown to be better than that of PET/MRI or MEG alone.
