To really inspect, put on a pinhole... everything will show.
That said, if there is only what you could consider "minor" dust or smudges and these are on the inside of the filter or on the sensor... it may be a better solution to treat the speck as a dead pixel and use that repair tool in Resolve. Since the speck will likely remain in place, a repair node could be made to just drop in when ever that camera is used. I have used the Dead Pixel Remover tool to remove dozens of such spots when shooting with a pinhole. Of course, pinhole images being much softer can have many such repairs without them being noticed. But this might be a solution for what you would consider "minor".
