Abstract: Cervical cancer is a leading cause of death from neoplasms in women, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Early detection is essential to reduce mortality, and artificial intelligence (AI) emerges as a promising tool to improve screening and diagnosis of the disease. Objectives: This integrative review aimed to analyze advances in the use of AI in the prevention and early detection of cervical cancer, focusing on clinical applications, diagnostic performance, and ethical and operational challenges. Methodology: A search was conducted in PubMed, SciELO, Cochrane CENTRAL, Capes Journals, and Embase, including studies published between 2018 and 2025, in Portuguese and English. Articles related to the application of AI in screening, diagnosis, and monitoring of cervical cancer were selected. The final analysis included 78 studies that met the eligibility criteria. Results: AI has demonstrated high accuracy in the analysis of cytological and colposcopic images, risk stratification, and clinical decision support, with models such as CNNs, ViTs, and tools such as CerviScan AI standing out. Machine learning-based technologies have been applied for HPV detection, automated cytology, and screening in remote regions, integrated with telemedicine platforms. Conclusion: AI represents a significant advance in women's health, with the potential to increase equity in cervical cancer screening. However, its implementation requires ethical solutions, validation in multiple populations, and integration with public policies.
