To be clear, the biomarker that this study is testing appears to be safe (the IRB / human subjects protection panel seems to think so). However, in the exceedingly rare possibility that the research somehow caused a medical issue, you may have some legal recourse, but you would need to contact a lawyer to learn about that. To answer your question, it would not likely be detected on the same scan that is causing the problem in the first place. Medical problems usually take some time to develop.
