A new quality map for quality-guided phase unwrapping is presented. The quality map is derived from the wrapped phase map directly and can reflect phase quality accurately. It is demonstrated that the proposed quality map is a good phase-quality indicator, with which the quality-guided unwrapping algorithm can retrieve a reliable phase profile.
