  We propose a novel method for the extraction of unresolved point sources from
CMB maps. This method is based on the analysis of the phase distribution of the
Fourier components for the observed signal and unlike most other methods of
denoising does not require any significant assumptions about the expected CMB
signal. The aim of our paper is to show how, using our algorithm, the
contribution from point sources can be separated from the resulting signal on
all scales. We believe that this technique is potentially a very powerful tool
for extracting this type of noise from future high resolution maps.
