PCT
International patent system
PCT is an abbreviation with several meanings depending on context.
In outdoor recreation, it's the Pacific Crest Trail, a long-distance hiking route from Mexico to Canada along the western United States: She thru-hiked the PCT last summer.
In medicine, PCT often means post-cycle therapy—supplements taken after a steroid cycle to restore natural hormone production.
In patent law, PCT refers to the Patent Cooperation Treaty, an international filing system.
