What legal power, if any, the DCF has should they rule that Terri has been abused is a question I can't answer.

I don't know about Florida, but here if there is a determination of abuse, the state is awarded custody of the victim and further investigation is done to either conviction of the perpetrator or return of the victim to the family. Of course the court grants the custody to the state, but I've never heard of any judge who didn't yield to the department's wishes. DCF, if they got their hands on the body scan and some of Terri's nurses' statements should have no problem with presenting a change of custody case before the court within the 3 three week timeframe. Unfortunately, this is Greer's district and we're talking Florida here so DCF may be just a crooked.
