A method includes deploying an electromagnetic (EM) defect detection tool in a downhole environment having a plurality of tubular strings with different diameters. The method also includes receiving raw measurements collected by the EM defect detection tool. The method also includes deconvolving the raw measurements with another input to obtain deconvolved raw measurements. The method also includes using the deconvolved raw measurements to determine a defect in at least one of the plurality of tubular strings. The method also includes performing, by a device, an operation in response to the determined defect.
