It is shown that under certain conditions the filtered backprojection algorithm produces a computed tomographic reconstruction for which the statistical accuracy attainable in the amplitude estimation of large-area objects meets the general lower bound derived by Tretiak. In this sense, filtered backprojection is an optimum algorithm.
