There has been much interest in screening populations for disease-associated mutations. A favored candidate has been the HFE gene, mutations of which are the most common cause of hemochromatosis in the European population. About five people in 1000 are homozygotes for the 845G3 A mutation, but littl

## Abstract Many clinical decisions require accurate estimates of disease risks associated with mutations of known disease‐susceptibility genes. Such risk estimation is difficult when the mutations are rare. We used computer simulations to compare the performance of estimates obtained from two type
