C.   Absence of glucose in the urine is a normal finding and does not typically warrant further investigation.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. This is partially correct but lacks the detail that the examination is done via an endoscope through the throat.
B. An endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) involves the use of an endoscope to visualize and treat problems in the bile ducts, gallbladder, and pancreas.

D. This statement also reflects a misunderstanding, as ERCP is primarily a diagnostic procedure and does not involve direct medication delivery to the gallbladder.
