To do this, first download RenderTraces.exe, under downloads. Be sure to save this executable in the same location as your .xml and .tif files. Once this file has been saved, execute the following steps:
1-Open up a command window(start->run->cmd)

4-Supply the input files by Typing: RenderTraces.exe "ImageFileName.tif" "TraceFileName.xml"
where ImageFileName.tif is the 3D tif image and TraceFileName.xml is the 3D trace xml. Be sure to include ".." around the file names as shown above.
