A method of measuring a static magnetic field distribution in a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) inspection system which comprises magnetic field generator for producing a static magnetic field, inclination or gradient magnetic fields and a high-frequency magnetic field, a signal detector for sensing nuclear magnetic resonance signals from an inspection sample, a computer for processing output signals from the signal detector and an output device for providing a computational result of the computer, wherein a time interval t.sub.1 from the center of a 90.degree.-pulse high-frequency magnetic field to the center of a 180.degree.-pulse high-frequency magnetic field is made different by a time difference t.sub.0 from a time interval t.sub.2 from the center of the 180.degree.-pulse high-frequency magnetic field to a peak of a spin echo, so that static magnetic field distribution is calculated based on the computer output which corresponds to the difference of the two time intervals.
