NT ultrasound

Do you have to request for a NT ultrasound at week 12? Or is it a norm for all moms to be to have this? I'm just a little concerned if my baby will be healthy (DS, birth defects etc) if I do not opt for the prenatal diagnostic tests to be done, can the docs tell if something is wrong from a normal ultrasound? 
Thanks!
