Thanks, got it.
Here is a brief summary of build intruction for people don't know how.

First build vtk to linuxBuild
   >create ${DST_DIR}: linuxBuild/Example/Medical/Cxx
   >cd ${DST_DIR}
   >run ccmake with source dir ${EX_DIR}: ${SRC_DIR}/Examples/Medical/Cxx
    >>t to toggle to advanced mode
    >>set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS
    >>set CMAKE_EXCUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH to ${DST_DIR}
    >>set VTK_DIR to linuxBuild
    >>type c to configure
    >>type g to generate Makefiles
   >make
