1. A system for medical training, comprising:
a) a POP device configured to register a position and orientation of the POP device with a computer using a first set of sensors;
b) a probe configured to register a position and orientation of the probe with the computer using a second set of sensors;
c) a scanning surface configured to register a position and orientation of the scanning surface with the computer using a third set of sensors; and
d) the computer configured to monitor the position and orientation of the POP device, the position and orientation of the probe, and the position and orientation of the scanning surface;
e) the computer programmed with a simulation software that when executed:
i) generates a simulated environment in the POP device representing a clinical scenario in a manner that corresponds with a user's gaze direction;
ii) generates a virtual medical instrument based on the position and orientation of the probe; and
iii) generates a virtual patient based on the position and orientation of the scanning surface.
