A chiller-less cooling system for cooling an interventional detector comprising a detector housing. The detector housing comprising a detector tray to which the detector is attached, a lift frame on which a driving mechanism is installed to lift up/down the detector housing, a connecting arm to connect the detector tray and the lift frame, and a cover. The cooling system comprising a heat pipes connecting the detector tray and the lift frame so as to reduce a thermal resistance between the detector tray and the lift frame and transfer more heat from the detector, an external heat sink connected with the heat pipe for reducing a thermal resistance between the lift frame and an ambient environment, and a high heat transfer coefficient device embedded into the detector tray for collecting heat leading to the heat pipe, obtaining a uniform temperature distribution, and reducing a thermal resistance of the detector tray.
