mediCAD?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid-2\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rich justify\"\u003e\u003cp\u003emediCAD is orthopedic surgical planning software published by mediCAD Hectec GmbH, based in Altdorf near Landshut and described on its own site as \u003cb\u003ea German company for digital orthopedic planning solutions and the market leader in the DACH region\u003c\/b\u003e. It covers the whole surgical arc: preoperative analysis, intraoperative support and postoperative assessment. The current generation is \u003cb\u003emediCAD 8\u003c\/b\u003e, announced on 6 January 2026 as the most powerful generation of the planning software to date. It is a generation of mediCAD, not a separate product. Its headline change is architectural: for the first time all 2D and 3D modules sit on one centralised platform, where previously the 2D and 3D applications had to be installed and maintained separately. Specialty coverage spans knee, hip, shoulder, spine, foot, upper limbs, trauma, templating and radiology. Artificial intelligence sits inside the workflow rather than on top of it. Anatomical landmarks are detected fully automatically in 2D and 3D across all hip and knee modules, implant recommendations are generated for the individual patient, and the publisher claims significantly faster planning with up to 70% fewer steps. Planning is dynamic: every measurement recalculates automatically as implants are swapped and corrections applied. Behind that sits an implant database presented as the largest in the world, with more than 600,000 prosthesis templates from over 130 international manufacturers and monthly updates. One inconsistency is worth flagging: the English home page advertises more than 500,000 templates, so the site contradicts its own figure. The software is built to live inside a hospital's imaging stack, integrating with PACS, RIS and registries for a continuous data flow and traceable processes. The family around it includes mediCAD Web (browser-based Hip, Knee, Long Leg and Radiology modules), mediCAD InsightOR for HoloLens 2, mediCAD Veterinary, mediCADemy for training, mediCAD Drive, mediCAD for Manufacturer, and the Query Client PACS interface supplied free with the 2D and 3D versions. Crucially, this is a regulated product rather than a viewer: mediCAD is a certified \u003cb\u003eMDR Class IIa medical device\u003c\/b\u003e carrying the SRN DE-MF-000006987. It can be deployed on hosting operated by mediCAD, with dedicated servers per customer or shared servers with tenant isolation, or installed on

The site has no pricing page, and there is no free plan: a trial version is available only on request. The licence terms refer licence and usage fees to the order form (\"die in dem Auftragsformular festgelegten Lizenzgebuehren oder Nutzungsgebuehren\"), and the general terms state that all prices are net prices, ex works Landshut, with VAT added at the rate applicable on the day of delivery; payment falls due on invoicing without discount, and fees are payable in advance where the software is delivered by download. What is contractually binding is the maintenance contract: entering into one with mediCAD Hectec GmbH is compulsory and falls due at 12-month intervals. Three template contracts are published, covering standard maintenance (12 months), Evergreen maintenance (12 months) and clinic-hosted mediCAD Web (24 months, then 12), but every one of them leaves the amount blank, so no figure can responsibly be quoted here. Two further terms are worth noting: the monthly payment option on the Web contract carries a 1% processing surcharge, and the fee may be revised at the earliest after two years and every two years thereafter.

An external data protection officer is named: Siegfried Flossmann, Muehlbachstrasse 48, 84547 Emmerting, info@sf-datenschutz.eu. The privacy notice cites Articles 15, 16, 17, 18, 20 and 21 explicitly, flags the access and erasure restrictions of sections 34 and 35 BDSG, and sets out the Article 77 right to complain to the Bavarian supervisory authority in Munich. Consent may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future, including consent given before 25 May 2018. Technical and organisational measures and SSL encryption in transit are announced, and the notice states that data is stored and processed under German and European data protection rules. Its scope, however, is the website, not the software.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"trust-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho owns the data?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"justify\" style=\"color:var(--gv3-ink-2);margin:0 0 12px\"\u003eThe published licence terms cover the software, not the clinical data. mediCAD Hectec GmbH grants a non-exclusive right of use and expressly retains every right in the software and its documentation, including in any copy or partial copy the customer makes. Customers may not decompile it, transfer the rights to third parties, or make it accessible to third parties without written consent, and must erase it completely before any media or hardware holding it is sold, passed on or destroyed. Nothing published states who owns the DICOM images, plans and patient records processed inside the software: the privacy policy covers only the website, so ownership of clinical data has to be settled in the contract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReuse rights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"justify\" style=\"color:var(--gv3-ink-2);margin:0\"\u003eOn the website side, mediCAD Hectec states that it collects no personal data unless you supply it yourself, through a registration, an order or an online survey, or unless another legal basis applies. The declared purposes are answering enquiries, processing orders, giving access to information, maintaining the customer relationship, informing you about offers and running online surveys. The company undertakes not to sell or market personal data to third parties, with one carve-out: affiliated companies of mediCAD Hectec GmbH within the meaning of section 271 HGB. Third-party tools declared for the site are Google Analytics and Usercentrics, both under a data processing agreement, plus OnWebChat (Greece) and TeamViewer for remote maintenance. Nowhere does the site address the reuse of customer or patient data to train AI models, and no training opt-out is offered; the only opt-out published is the Google Analytics browser plug-in. On the software side, the licence terms restrict what you may do with mediCAD itself but say nothing about reusing the plans and images you produce with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"trust-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eData retention \u0026amp; training\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"kv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"k\"\u003eRetention summary\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"v justify\"\u003eThe retention rules published cover the website only. As a general rule, data is kept only as long as the purpose and your consent last, and is normally deleted after six months. Google Analytics data tied to cookies and advertising identifiers is anonymised or deleted after 14 months. Usercentrics consent records are kept until you request deletion, delete the cookie, or the purpose ends. For conferencing and remote-maintenance tools, data is deleted on request, on withdrawal of consent, or when the purpose ends, and mediCAD states it has no influence over how long the vendors of those tools keep data themselves. Mandatory statutory retention periods are expressly reserved. Nothing is published about how long patient data or the plans produced inside the software are kept, so that has to be settled contractually.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"kv\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"k\"\u003eGDPR contact\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"v\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"mailto:info@sf-datenschutz.eu\"\u003einfo@sf-datenschutz.eu\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"trust-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHosting summary\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"justify\" style=\"color:var(--gv3-ink-2);margin:0 0 14px\"\u003emediCAD 8 can be run two ways. With mediCAD Hosting, the publisher operates the platform on servers dedicated to a single customer, or on shared servers with tenant isolation, in what the site calls certified, high-availability data centres; the stated benefits are less administration, faster rollout, scalability and automatic updates. With On Premise hosting, the software runs inside the customer's own infrastructure, presented as maximum data sovereignty and free of any dependence on an internet connection. A third arrangement appears in the published template contracts: a mediCAD Web instance hosted by the clinic itself. The gap that matters is that no hosting country or region is named anywhere for the hosted offering; the data centres are described as certified, never as located. Two shortcuts should be resisted. The public website runs on infrastructure operated by Hetzner Online GmbH in Nuremberg, but that is the marketing site and says nothing about where the clinical platform runs. And the German servers promise found on the site belongs to chatMED, a separate product from the same publisher. Anyone with a jurisdiction requirement should have the hosting location written into the contract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"block watch\" id=\"watch\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"head\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"eyebrow\"\u003eWatch-outs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThings to keep in mind\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"lead\"\u003eRisks and trade-offs to weigh before adopting mediCAD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"brand-list\" style=\"grid-template-columns:repeat(2,1fr);display:grid;gap:12px 24px\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomation bias is the first risk with any planning software that detects landmarks fully automatically and promises up to 70% fewer steps. Time saved is only a gain if the surgeon still checks the landmarks, the implant suggestion and the resulting measurements; a plan accepted without review carries the same clinical responsibility as one drawn by hand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe company's own account of its age does not hold together. The legal entity behind the brand was registered in December 1989 under a completely different name and a different business purpose (computer systems trading), was renamed Hectec GmbH in 2004 and mediCAD Hectec GmbH in 2016; meanwhile the site claims a 1994 foundation and celebrates '25 Years of mediCAD' in 2025, which would place the origin in 2000. Treat the registration date as dating the legal entity, not the product.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe size of the implant library is stated inconsistently: over 600,000 templates on the German home page, the product page and the database page, but more than 500,000 on the English home page. Ask which figure is current before it becomes a selection criterion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRead the certifications precisely. MDR Class IIa and EN ISO 13485 are issued to mediCAD Hectec GmbH by mdc medical device certification GmbH, notified body 0483, and an MDSAP certificate covers 2024-2027; the three PDFs are genuinely downloadable. 'DSB-TUEV Sued' is not a mediCAD certification at all, it is the personal qualification of the external data protection officer. And the published MDR certificate expires on 09.12.2026, so verify the renewal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe privacy documentation has a narrow scope. It covers the website only, with its cookies, Google Analytics, Usercentrics, OnWebChat and TeamViewer. It says nothing about how patient data is processed inside the software, no retention period is published for clinical data, and no data processing agreement is offered to customers. Everything that matters for a hospital's own accountability has to be negotiated into the contract.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not transfer claims between products. chatMED, a clinical messaging app from the same publisher, is still on the site and promises German servers; that promise does not apply to mediCAD, for which no hosting country is published anywhere. Likewise, the regulatory approvals listed (MDR, FDA, NMPA, Canada) are market authorisations, not a list of countries where the product is sold or supported.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA few signals suggest uneven upkeep of the public site: the home page link to mediCAD Web leads to a 404, a form block still carries Lorem ipsum placeholder text, the template contracts page is reachable only through the sitemap, the .eu registrant is not disclosed by the registry, and the German transparency register is closed to the public, so no beneficial owner can be verified from open sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"block\" id=\"setup\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"head\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"eyebrow\"\u003eSetup\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSetup \u0026amp; Integrations\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"setup-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"setup-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:15px;margin-bottom:10px\"\u003eTechnical difficulty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"justify\" style=\"color:var(--gv3-ink-2);margin:0 0 14px\"\u003eModerate, and gated by contract more than by technology.

It addresses one job, planning orthopedic surgery before, during and after the operation, and it does so as a certified MDR Class IIa medical device, with an implant library and PACS integration that no generic viewer can match. The AI here is an accelerator: automatic landmark detection and implant suggestions compress the planning workflow, but the clinical decision stays with the surgeon. The company claims market leadership in the DACH region and has real international reach, with a US subsidiary in Atlanta, an entity in China, a French contact point and a distribution network described as 70 partners in 2021. The certifications are genuine, nominative and verifiable: MDR Class IIa and EN ISO 13485 issued to mediCAD Hectec GmbH by mdc medical device certification GmbH, notified body 0483, plus an MDSAP certificate covering 2024-2027, all downloadable as PDFs. Two things deserve attention before you commit. Commercially, everything runs through a quotation: no price appears anywhere, not even in the template contracts the company itself publishes, and a 12-month maintenance contract is compulsory. Budget for that maintenance from the outset and ask which contract is on the table, since only the Evergreen version includes full version upgrades. On the compliance side, the published MDR certificate expires on 09.12.2026, so ask for the renewed certificate rather than assuming continuity, and get the hosting location written into the contract, because the site never states where the hosted platform runs. For an orthopedic department that wants standardised, traceable, regulated planning, mediCAD is a serious candidate.
