Blood pressure in your office is 140/80 mmHg. <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />A CT scan showed no evidence of hemorrhage or space-occupying lesion. An EKG shows normal sinus rhythm. Which one of the following is the most important investigation to order at this time?
1) an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain

3) cerebral angiography
4) a chest x-ray
