There is a way to get the current keyboard state and work out what keys are pressed, but its a bit messy and uses the user32.dll. Have a look at the answer to this one.

Maybe you can count the number of KeyDown vs KeyUp? If the counter is 1 and it's the key you want....

Or if you want to want to do something only if that one key is pressed try something like 

if(!Keyboard.IsKeyDown(Key.LeftCtrl)) return;

That will throw them out of the function if the key pressed isn't what is required.

dependant on which key you want to check do something like this 

if(Keyboard.IsKeyDown(Key.LeftCtrl))
    //do something
