Just to add a bit...
An instrumentation (or instrumentational) amplifier is a type of differential amplifier that has been outfitted with input buffers, which eliminate the need for input impedance matching and thus make the amplifier particularly suitable for use in measurement and test equipment.Instrumentation Amplifier (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation_amplifier)
