Is A 2D Pregnancy Scan Accurate In Showing Any Problems?

I got 2D scan done in my 6th month of pregnancy. But I am not very satisfied with the scan report. I feel 2D scan may not give accurate results about birth defects, features or any other problem with baby. But my doctor said everything is fine. To reconfirm do I really need to go for 4D scan or I beleive 2D scan report?

generally 2d scan is sufficient but if you have doubt go for 3d or 4d scan. major problems are usually detectable by 2d scan
