I'd say to rule out another cause that could be physical in nature.

A CT scan is just a series of X-rays, is it not? As was said, to see if there's anything in the brain. such as a tumor or evidence of a strike or such. It doesn't involve sending electricity through the brain, like ECT, which is said to help depression.
