释义 | McKusick classificationMcKusick classificationA popular name for the classification of human disease delineated by Victor McKusick (1921–2008), Osler Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins medical school and “Linnaeus” of human genetics, who single-handedly organised the catalogue of congenital disease. His central work, the Mendelian Inheritance in Man (MIM, and the online version OMIM), forms the basis for international communication in genetic disease; each condition found in the work has an assigned MIM number, often based on the pattern of inheritance, as in autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant or linked to the X chromosome. |
