Chest region
Abdominal region
Neck region

The correct answer is: Neck region

A cervical x-ray is used to take an image of the neck region, which includes the vertebrae of the neck, the muscles, and other surrounding structures. Option A is incorrect because a cervical x-ray is focused on the neck region and not the chest region. Option B is incorrect because the abdominal region is located below the neck and is not part of the targeted area. Option D is also incorrect because the pelvic region is located at the bottom of the spine and is not part of the neck region. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
