Source imaging of seizure onset predicts surgical outcome in pediatric epilepsy

•Electric source imaging with low-density scalp EEG can approximate the seizure onset zone location in children with epilepsy.•Electric source imaging with low-density scalp EEG can offer additive information about intracranial EEG placement and resection margins.•Resection of the seizure onset zone localized non-invasively with low-density scalp EEG can predict outcome in children with epilepsy.
