The presence of speckle noise and dislocations makes phase restoration potentially difficult in quantitative phase imaging and metrology. Unfortunately, there is no appropriate approach to deal with phase data corrupted by high speckle noise and phase dislocations. Usually, processing schemes may deal with low-pass phase filtering, phase unwrapping, or phase inpainting. This paper discusses the efficient processing to deal with noisy phase maps corrupted with phase dislocations. Six processing schemes, combining four operations, are evaluated. The investigation is carried out by realistic numerical simulations in which strong decorrelation phase noise and phase dislocations are generated. As a result, most robust and faster processing is established. The applicability of the optimal scheme is demonstrated through deformation measurement in dental materials.
