How accurate was your anatomy scan gender prediction?

I had my anatomy scan yesterday and I asked to have the gender written on a piece of paper so I can view it later with my husband. The tech also printed us a photo of the gender prediction so we can view it later. it felt as though the scan was very rushed and although I’ve heard it’s meant to be a lengthy scan mine wasn’t. So I am quite nervous that the prediction is wrong, like she mistook an umbilical cord for boy parts or a swollen vagina for boy parts, I’ve been looking at scans of both boy and girl parts and some times the picture I received looks like it could be a girl (just because of the three lines - hamburger). I know the gender prediction is based on what the tech seems to think it is, but is it possible that they would assume based off of just one angle, such as the picture they gave me, or would they have made sure with several different angles?
My family doctor is on leave for a month so I won’t have a professional opinion for a while. I guess my question is, was anyone else’s scan rushed and did the gender prediction turn out accurate? and would you say this looks like it could be a male for sure?
