Reassurance : Most likely your depression caused by result of this test or even necessity to do it, but definitely not by due. It's happens.

Why u got a CAT Scan: I am not aware of any case of contrast dye causing depression. I suspect though the reason you had to get the scan maybe the cause of your symptoms. There must be suspicion of abnormality in your body so your physician ordered this test. Significant anxiety or concern about the potential finding may be the trigger of your symptoms. Please consult doc. I hope the result will be normal. Good luck!
