The best time to get a scan that rules out congenital anamoly in foetus is 18 -24 weeks scan .Any scan done after that might have high chance of missing anamolies in the baby. That is what they have mentioned. As long as the growth of the baby in the scan you have done is adequate do not worry about the comment.
