Dear Zampini, If you read the tutorial you would read that it states : "Using vmtkMeshGenerator
Here you can find some examples on how to use vmtkmeshgenerator. All of the meshes displayed below have been generated from the surface in Figure 1, referred as foo.vtp." A foo.vtp is very similar to foo.stl (I am not sure for foo.vtk but i think it will be similar as well) what you should do is: vmtksurfacewriter -ifile foo.stl -ofile foo.vtp and then read the tutorial I gave you.
