'They noted he had a negative s/l a-thal done in September and a TTE, which showed preserved ejection fraction in October.'

I am figuring this is short for adenosine thallium. Is that correct? is my abbrev. correct? Thanks.

'PROCEDURE: s/l A-thal that was negative for inducible ischemia but with ejection fraction of 30%.'

I have come across this a few times now and don't know what this represents. I think it might be slang for adensosine thallium but there is also a Thal fundoplication procedure. Just wondering if anyone can shed some light on this. Thanks.
dipy? sometimes they say "dipy thal" for dipyridamole thallium test -
