'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.

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

dipy? sometimes they say "dipy thal" for dipyridamole thallium test -
