I think most of the LW audience doesn’t know the abbreviation. I would guess “physical therapy” but it took some thinking.
As I see the subject, anatomy research is extremely underfunded. Universities want to fund research that could produce results that they can resell to big pharma and big pharma has mostly no use for anatomy.
Physical therapy actually has a use for anatomy and therefore their textbooks cover it.

Sorry, I meant ‘Physical Training’ - will edit it now. Of course, your point still stands.
Edited to add: Gavin Francis’s ‘Adventures in Human Being’ is another great book on the subject.
