Reply to comment by marche_au_supplice in Yale Psychiatry: Recruiting healthy male research participants [compensated] for brain scan study. I am limited by the Institutional Review Board in what information I can provide here, but contact Jane or Beth for the details [see image for phone #]. by TheyCallMeTylee
Yes, the researchers will inform you if there is an incidental or unexpected finding that a doctor would be concerned about.

What if they cause it.....will they tell you then?

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.
