What time can an ultrasound be performed to see if the fetus is normal?

Patient's question:

Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I am 5 months pregnant. I had an ultrasound at 3 months. Could you please tell me when I should have another ultrasound to check if the fetus is developing normally, whether there are any abnormalities or congenital diseases. Should I have an ultrasound soon?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you can have a color ultrasound at 4 months of pregnancy. Generally, the fetus's external shape has developed, allowing for an assessment of the baby's health condition. At 6 months of pregnancy, the fetus's internal organs have developed, and a color ultrasound can be performed for further screening of the baby's health condition.
