First thing I thought was: wow, that's a quite liberal use of the term "nondestructive". I dug around the specs, and the neutron flux is 108 n/cm2/sec max. To approach a 600ppi resolution (and I say approach because I assume the actual vector of each neutron is random and not distributed uniformly), you'd need roungly 60k n/cm2, so the picture will take 10 minutes at max power. If we assume half get absorbed by the object (will depend on the material and its thickness), 30k atoms are potentially becoming radioactive. This figure, for some materials it won't matter much, for others materials will become radioactive, and for others it'll release alpha particles straight away to become stable (and for others it may result in nuclear fission, teehee). Still, 30k atoms/cm2 doesn't sound like a lot of radioactivity added to an object, but its safety will HEAVILY depend on the material it's made of. In general, I'd say objects will remain probably safe enough to handle without protection, but probably not safe to eat; for a few weeks, at least, until the most active isotopes are cleared out. A banana for scale[0], has 3.4mg of potassium per cm3, 0.012% of them are radioactive, leaving 0.4µg of radioactive potassium, which amounts to 6.161e15 atoms [1], so 3e5 more is nothing to write Marie Curie about.
