What is limited-scope radiography?

Very focal eval: It's all based on context and question at hand but generally this term would be used for only a single x-ray or two of a very specific area. For example, an x-ray of just the lower ribs looks for a fracture rather than a more routine whole chest x-ray evaluation.
